Sadly, if we have to rely on our corrupt gov’t for our safety we are already doomed! Obama’s administration is heavily in bed with the deceitful Monsanto lobbyists (Sabillius). Question is, who can be trusted privately within the new commercialized “organic” industry to assure our products are indeed ORGANIC. Horizon products bear the mark of USDA Organic, their cows never roam freely, rarely if ever graze natural grasses, and are fed questionable grains which raise their acidic levels. The sorcery of this age is immense, only those most astute will not become victims.

I always questioned the authenticity of the USDA organic label. These so called “watch dog” agencies like the FDA, FCC, USDA are protecting industries that they are supposed to scrutinize and regulate. I suspect entire USDA organic labeling scheme was another marketing concept to enrich the prevailing giants of the food industry. Are there organic companies that we can trust? SO many of them are being co-opted by large food conglomerates like Heinz,General Mills and Coca Cola which naturally makes me worried that any organic standards that had been adhered to will now be compromised.

thanks for this article. i’ve been trying to eat mostly organic for about a month now. I’ve wondered at some of the ingredients I’ve seen, but figured, “well it’s organic, must be fine right?”

Good article, and further, organizations such as “The Organic Trade Association” have been hijacked by major corporations. OTA is a major lobbying force in Washington DC and have influence on setting organic standards for the benefit of their members. Organic is like pregnancy; “you are or your not”.
