Last night I bought some fresh organically grown parsley for my lasagna
this weekend (which is my signature dish). Is there a difference taste-wise to organically grown herbs? -ss |

Since produce doesn't come from a food replicating computer, like in Star Trek, there are inconsistencies and there will always be differences. |

I just read that it reduces exposure to synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. If there's no difference in taste then I'm going to keep on buying it. |

Well, it's true. There's no guaranteed consistency in living things. This year, my green peppers have thicker walls than last year. Same seeds, same soil, same planting location. And, my parsley's half the size it was last year. Same seeds, same soil blah blah blah. |

My parsley and oregano can kick your parsley and sorrel's asses! And don't let my savory get behind you either! The chives are only there as a diversion. but my rosemary is always ready for a throwdown |
