Organic foods

I am just curious if anyone else has dealt with these problems.
Twice now I have bought products that are organic. Thinking it would be better for me. And both times I have sworn never to do it again.
The first time it was romaine lettuce. It was full of bugs. Tons of little tiny bugs like flys. I had to throw it all away. I don't know if people just wash them off or what but by the time I had gone through it I wanted to throw up.
The other day I bought an apple. I love green apples and the regular ones were 70 cents more per pound than the organic so I thought ok I will buy one. Thankfully I only bought one. The apple was ok but not worth wasting my calories on and the skin was awful. No matter how much you chewed it was not mashing up. Maybe they were old or something but ick.
Is this common or was it just the store.
It is a big chain store so the turnover of fruits and veggies is pretty high.
Thanks for your answers.
