Yep. Here’s one article from the Washington Post on how the USDA described its primary responsibility as growing the ‘organic’ industry — corrupted the organic label:
Some people with their sanitized lifestyle have turned themselves into what amounts to a “petri dish” just ready for a gem to spread like wildfire.
A simple cut on their finger most people ignore will turn into a major infection.
I was really too small back then (in the ‘60s) to know what was going on what. I remember when Roundup came on the market in the ‘70s as something of a scary-miracle herbicide, however.
Isn't fructose "fruit sugar"?
As far as your system is concerned, I believe sugar is sugar...including white flour.
Chicken in garlic sauce, extra hot and spicy. With hot tea.
I think Round Up is 2-4-D and IIRC Agent-Orange is 2-4-5T.
AO was used for killing the woody plants 2-4-D won’t even phase.
?????? I drink organic skim milk. I’m waiting for someone to tell me why it lasts ten times longer than non-organic milk? Plain and simple question.
Did it come from a cow?
Is it raw milk?
Then you and I understand ourselves where these other posters seem content to mock and spend their time coming up with wittiness.
You compare the expiration dates on both if you buy today. The non-organic will say, “Sell before April 10, 2014,” while the organic will read, “Sell before May 20, 2014!!!!!”
Sure I pay a few pennies more, but what gives here? Is the milk fresher? Or are they putting chemicals in it so it lasts longer?
Also, it seems like it tastes better, the same over time with each use. And guess what, I notice the same with organic veggies and meats.
THe poster raises a question. ARe we being duped into thinking organic is better and fresher when it’s not?
I would hazard a guess that it is because when they pasteurize commercial milk they raise the temperature too high, too fast.
Madam I wish I could come and observe your gardening for a season, I have never been able to grow squat
I’ve always thought organic food was a scam to make people pay 2 - 3 times more for it. The lefties love “organic” and will just about buy into anything that makes them appear to be health conscious or “better than you” even if it appears to be idiotic. The guys who sell this stuff love the easily influenced and gullible lefties.
I’m curious as to the actual numbers and conditions you are considering in the comparison. I believe there is some difference, but not nearly 10x.
Also, isn’t ‘organic skim milk’ an oxymoron?
It is due to UHT processing, i.e. ultra high temperature pasturization.

Hey poop is naturally produced and “organic” so it must be good or you, right?
lol
I am over the natural bs having just recovered from broken foot wearing flats rather than a shoe with a rigid sole.
There are no GM tomatoes available at this time so you didn’t eat a GM tomato.
I envy you.
I would much rather smell the manure of the farm than whats spread around by democrats and Washington.
(I grew up by a dairy farm and was sent out to the pastures with a shovel and wheel barrow)
