Thread Name: BS: Food is just chemicals
Subject: RE: BS: Food is just chemicals
Dick said "Organic" foods have been defined as foods in which all the chemical additives are organic chemnicals.

That's not right. Organic foods are raised with as few chemicals as possible, and those that are used are as benign to everything else as possible. Beneficial, even.

"Organic chemcials" are not benign or beneficial when used near the food supply. Google search on "organic chemicals"

For example: From a site called "Enviro Mysteries"


And from an Idaho Geology site (Portneuf Valley Groundwater Guardian, around Rapaire's corner of the world):


I don't want your organic chemicals anywhere near my organic food.
