Well, there's some good thing about organic food like
1. Ye don't have to be worried to eat it raw
2. You don't have to be worried about any pesticides or any harmful chemicals
But the bad thing is...
1. Expensive... Very Expensive...
2. You will get some extra protein(What? That's good) from some nasty little bugs and insects which no pesticide has touch them (Well, okay, that's just plain gross)

"much better"?
it is much better for agricultural sustainabliity, ecological bio-diversity. lower oil based inputs; less soil degredation, lower water requirements. Less intensive also means more tolerant of coming climate change; especially important in marginal farming communities
Organic food does not receive as much subsidy as big global agri-business; so poorer countries can compete without needing to import agro-chemicals, or be undercut by forign dumping.
For an example of how this may work see Cuba, which now has highest life expectancy in the americas.
Milk products concentrate agro-chemicals, and in the US genetically modified hormones too, organic reduces these.
Normally/preferably closer to the consumer, so fresher = better.
This does not apply to processed food.
Organic food also provides a much better mark-up for the big retailers.
Small scale locally produced fresh food from a "healthy" soil and animal husbandry that avoids overstocking and anti-biotics; and purchased directly from the grower (eg farmers market) gives much better quality food, healthy rural economy and eco-system and personal health. Also it helps to know, and get enthusiatic about, where our food comes from.

Im sory but your question makes no sense. If your asking if it tastes better I would say yes but... Their is also bug problems and a faster decay rate. I would save the trouble and go with convetional foods.
