    1. Definitely an area of controversy - I would rather eat organic for several reasons, but am happy allowing everyone to have their own opinions! However, the reason I eat low pesticide residue (and post the list for my readers who are also in my position) is because of severe allergy. I must avoid corn in all forms. Corn oil and other corn derivatives are often used as carrying agents for plant applications - whether or not the applications are organic or conventional.
