This could devolve into a long conversation which is off-topic... my question was simply where the food comes from.

To answer your question, most definitely the food out of CDG is not organic. But I will sure as heck take non-organic European food over non-organic American food.

A few examples and I will leave it at that (watch Food Inc sometime...):

1) American beef is pumped up with rGBH hormones and a host of other carcinogenic substances which are banned by health organizations worldwide
2) American poultry is pumped up with antibiotics
3) There are almost 1000 pesticides/herbicides which are commonly used in the US and are banned worldwide

Most Americans don't know or care about this- it's simply my personal preference, just don't want to eat it...
