Pesticide/chemical residue on food.

Hi there. Just applying some logic to this report, and I find it hard to believe that you did not find organic food to be healthier than mainstream food. Surely the answer is fact? the 3000 TONS of pesticides, including insectisides herbicides and fungicides used in New Zealand every year MUST be in our food. And how can this be ok?
Come on consumer! I was looking for some balanced food advice and this report is dissapointing.
