Organic products in England

Post new topic

Bhavna

Hello everyone,

As a consumer in England, you may seek to maintain a healthy lifestyle by choosing mostly organic products. If you do favour such products, we would like to know more about your consumption habits.

Is it easy to find organic products in England (cosmetics, food, etc.)? Where can we find them?

Are organic products more or less expensive than in your country of origin? What average monthly budget do you spend on them?

Can we rely on labels on organic products in England? Are the origins of the products verified by an organization?

Are organic products part of English culture? Have you ever tried to make your own organic products (candles, toothpaste, gardening, food)?

In your opinion, is the consumption of organic products only a fad or does it have real benefits on one’s health?

Thanks for sharing your experience,

Bhavna

Organic products, food products in England are popular but like anywhere, only if you can afford the increased prices. In the UK everything has to be labelled properly. I don't think having organic products is a fad in England, certainly not for food. It's just that it can be quite difficult to eat only organic 7 days a week. Aside from the increased prices, who is willing to take it seriously and check whether a restaurant uses organic food before going out to a restaurant. I am sure that organic foods would interest vegans and vegetarians more than the average meat eating person.
