Gloop/organic veggies question

[aquagreen]

So, while browsing gloop recipes, I notice a lot of people don't specify that frozen veggies etc added to the mix need to be organic. I'm so afraid to give my bird anything that isn't organic. Am I worrying too much?

There are many frozen foods that say they are organic. I have even found organic bananas.

Oh, thanks! Nice to know. I'll be honest--I haven't closely browsed frozen veggies/fruit looking for organic stuff. Maybe I've been missing out.

I use both regular and organic. I go by the 'dirtiest list' and use organic for all of them plus all the greens except for broccoli which is safe to feed 'regular' so, in my gloop, all the grains and flax seed, the peas and carrots and the blue curly kale are organic while the beans, corn, broccoli, sweet potatoes, green beans and artichoke are not.

When in doubt, go to the 'dirtiest list' (I also buy all the leafy greens organic). You find it here: http://www.ewg.org/foodnews/dirty_dozen_list.php

Pajarita,

In fact, I have your gloop recipe in hand and am about to head to the store now. I took note of the brands you had linked. Thanks!
