Re: the term 'organic' rendered meaning-less

[Guest guest]

thanks for ur post - i hate the term " organic " and always felt it was unhelpful

and purposely put out there to confuse/impress us, like putting an exotic french

name on a jar of plain old skin cream - hope it gets replaced with terms that

mean something, like grass-fed its whole life or grown on soil which is not

depleted/contaminated with toxins, hormone/antibiotic-free or cage-free/free

range or some other descriptive term - DDT is also organic; should i eat and pay

more for food because its label says " organic " ? more complications occur

because a huge percentage of our food is imported internationally and not

obtained locally - what IS the original meaning? i don't even know that,

captured by the corporate/ government partnership, who - true to form - utterly

perverted its original meaning.
