I knew the Organic food industry was dead, when Bush lowered the Organic Standards so that factory food could qualify as Organic.

Since then there has been constant pressure form large agri business to keep on lowering the quality of Organic food.

Recently, their was proposal to all something to be called Organic even if a small percentage contained a list of 58 ingredients previously banned in Organic foods.

Sorry to say, but the gleam of dollar bills is in the eye of the food industry, and they will do anything to lower standards while increasing profits.

President Bush and his Posse, is more than willing to oblige.
