LONDON (Reuters) ---Organic fruit, carried right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.

“Organic produce is always better,” Mr. Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(殺蟲劑), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms.
