“When the food companies started seeing an increased demand in organic food they simply went to their lobbyist friends in Washington, paid the tens of millions of dollars in bribes to the politicians, and got the definitions changed of what organic really is. On October 26 the Agriculture Committee voted to allow the use of synthetic substances in products called organic! The law states, “Synthetic food additives and processing aids can now be used in organic foods without public knowledge.” For example, dairy cows could be treated with antibiotics and fed genetically engineered food prior to being converted to organic production and still be called organic. This is why I state do not buy foods from publicly traded corporations. The Organic Consumers Association said, “Newly emerging organic industry giants such as Kraft, Dole, Dean Foods, Horizon, Whole Foods Market, Wild Oats, Aurora, Smuckers, and General Mills seek a streamlined expedited approach to modifying and weakening organic standards and allowing the inclusion of synthetic non-organic chemical substances in processed foods and still have the ability to call these food organic even though they are not. They are doing this to meet the booming public demand for organics.” Remember, publicly traded corporations lie to you. They are only interested in making more money.”
