Yeah, I've come to find out that me choosing to eat organic/non gmo is controversial among atheists for some reason. But whatevs. They didn't go through what I did, and after that I'd rather play it safe and follow my doctor's advice.
Anyway, my rule is this: when I go grocery shopping, I buy everything organic/non gmo, and I only buy foods according to my diet. But that is the extent of it. When I eat at a friend's house or go out to eat (as I do a few times a month), I don't worry about the food being organic, or even about my diet at all. Healthy diets are very important, but it's equally important not to get too obsessive to the point where you're not giving yourself a break in circumstances where you're not eating at home for whatever reason. Just don't make eating out the norm, obviously lol.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
