"I avoid organic food as much as possible, for my health."
« on: October 15, 2012, 07:31:49 am »
Check out this thought a friend posted on his facebook:

"I avoid organic food as much as possible, for my health."

And he says he is convinced of this because he reads.

And that the links he gave were:

http://www.livestrong.com/article/376727-organic-food-health-risks/

and

http://skeptoid.com/episodes/4019

so I asked:

"How about GMO corn? The kind that kills the bugs that eat them?"

and he answered:

"I'm all for GMO, synthetic fertilizers, and synthetic pesticides. They're actually much healthier than organics, and better for the environment too."

and he also gave:

Organic Foods Part 1/2 - Season 7 Episode 6 - Penn and Teller Bullshit

----------------

Amazing how people can be swayed by what they "read."

"Organic" is just a label. I've come across farmers, too poor to afford to convert to organic status, who provided food that was far superior to what large agricombine organic producers had. What matters is what the farmers feed their animals on, and what conditions the animals live in. "Organic" is meaningless, for example, if  cows are fed on 100% grain diets and/or only allowed to stay in a stall for 24 hours a day.
