This lady is clearly just susceptible to marketing hype that exists in any industry, including the food-products industry. Of course all the latest fads, diets, and food labels are bullshit. The solution is easy and generally applicable: ignore the trends, stick with the "classic" tried-and-true options. The nutritional differences between organic/non-GMO/free-range and their conventional counter-parts are marginal, and don't come close to impacting health the way the difference between consuming 2000 calories vs 8000 calories a day does. It's this simple: fats are fat because they eat too much, whereas humans understand CICO. Just buy a bag of carrots, some chicken, some broccoli and shut up, you stupid bitch.

Maybe it's different elsewhere but here in Britain I do tend to buy organic or soil association verified stuff when I can not for any health benefits as such but more for environmental benefits. Thanks to rulings from the EU when products bear those labels they really do have to meet strict standards so it's not quite as much a hipstery trendy thing here (of course the hipsters do still bleat on about it but at least it's somewhat meaningful)
