Do you believe in Organic Stores around Phnom Penh

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Yeah, but I don't want my chilies peeled, or the basil, etc.

I can't believe anybody willingly puts seafood/riverfood in their gobs in South East Asia; that's a recipe for heavy metal poisoning and worse. But that's not quite as exciting as getting worked up about pesticides on vegetables for some reason...
Why? Why are you changing the subject? Were talking about organic veges.

Seems some can't quite grasp the concept of pesticides accumulationg in the soil year after year, and the toxins being absorbed in plants cell structures via the roots as they grow.

I think it is sometimes important, so far I worked with some Veggie stores around BKK1 & Toul Tom Pong, but those of them don't really want to call their products are Certified Organic Products.
