Prizm, my DH is the same way. He doesn't think that we need to buy organic, but I do anyway. I'm the one grocery shopping for our family, so if I can find a good deal on something I gobble it up! DH can't complain when I find organic items cheaper than conventional or even free. He may ask, "Do we need that?" And sometimes the answer is no. That doesn't make it any different than the bazillion chips he will consume if they come into the house...he just doesn't say anything about the chips. So which is right?

You can't worry about the percantage of organic you are. You just need to do the best you can for your family. Once you have your family handled well, then you can move on to a bigger picture. Also, "going organic" doesn't encapsulate everything about living well for the earth. You could be buying all organic products but throw everything in the trash (probably plastic trash bags), including all the product wrappers etc. Is that a better way than not buying all organic and recycling product packaging?

I hope you can get DH on board easier than I am. It's a balancing act with a multiple of things to consider.
