Question

12．The 26-year-old computer technician is one of a growing number of British shoppers buying into the organic trend．And if he can't have the food delivered to his front door，he has to spend extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food．"Organic produce is better，because the food is free of chemicals，"Gould said，"and you are generally supporting family farms instead of business．It is locally grown and seasonal，so it is tastier．"Supermarkets across Britain are dependent on people like Gould to make money．
But a survey at two London supermarkets showed that what people believe about organic food is not always true．For instance，some approved pesticides （chemicals killing insects） can be used on organic products．And about three-quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported．
"The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year，"said Sue Flook，an official on Britain's organic produce．
In Britain，the Department for Environment，Food and Rural Affairs sets the rules．"Organic farming aims to avoid the use of artificial pesticides and fertilizers，and'no herbicides are permitted，"Flook said．
Organic organizations have also been fighting to keep genetically modified crops well away from their fields．
    But for many shoppers，organic food is just too expensive．
"I think it is a marketing strategy and just a crazy trend．We have been eating the same food for thousands of years，"said Freya Koepping，a visitor in London．
