Chemistry, it seems, is chemistry. Reuters reports:

Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine said consumers were paying higher prices for organic food because of its perceived health benefits, creating a global organic market worth an estimated $48 billion in 2007.

A systematic review of 162 scientific papers published in the scientific literature over the last 50 years, however, found there was no significant difference. See the rest of the brief news blurb here.

And the abstract of the actual report can be found here.
