Agree. The greater majority of us stuck with the supermarket and the inflationary prices there today. As for organic, aside from high cost, I have a couple of observations. First how many sources are. Either they simply lie or they are in close proximity to non organic ops so cross contamination impossible to prevent. Also, every warning…
Agree. The greater majority of us stuck with the supermarket and the inflationary prices there today. As for organic, aside from high cost, I have a couple of observations. First how many sources are. Either they simply lie or they are in close proximity to non organic ops so cross contamination impossible to prevent. Also, every warning about e. coli contamination of fresh vegs I have seen has been organic source so there is an obvious problem there. And whereto begin addressing all this has to include developers who will develop land for habitat or cultivation not caring a whit about its history. And corrupted gov agencies and….
There looks to be a lot of changes in ingredients of foods we may have used for decades to make them cheaper to manufacture to cope with inflation. We notice stuff no tasting quite the same. I won't go near a fast food place anymore. Actually haven't for many years except when on the road and there were few alternatives. Then we would stop at a grocery instead and make our own from the deli section.
I don't trust the organic claims as a guarantor of food safety. There is no heavy metal monitoring required and so many plants can accumulate them.
You're totally right about the cross contamination. I sort of laugh about the concept of organic farming in valley or any land mass that receives runoff from other farms.
Good points. You can't trust them all. Organic foods producers can now use the organic seal if the product is only 70% organic (I think Dr. Joseph Mercola shared that info or Organic Consumers Association). Also, Apeel, a coating to make fruit and vegetables look fresher than they are is being used on organic products (not required on label) and you can't wash it off.

Apeel brought to you by Mr. Evil, I mean Bill Gates.
And the buyers who sell it to unsuspecting customers without a second thought.
