Organic Food Labeling: How To Tell If Packaged Food Is Organic
www.howdini.com Confused by organic food labeling? Author and organic food expert Anna Lappe explains what the terminology means. Organic Food Labeling: How To Tell If Packaged Food Is Organic Sometimes it’s hard to distinguish organic food by its packaging. Fresh produce is easier…it either is or isn’t organically grown. But packaged foods are trickier. Here’s what you need to know about organic food labels: * Look for the USDA certified organic seal. This means at least 95% of the ingredients are organic. * If you see a label that says 70% organic, that means that 70% of the ingredients are organic. * If the product has less than 70% organic ingredients, it can’t feature an organic label, so you have to read the ingredients on the package. Don’t be fooled by products that you think are organic because their names or packaging look like they are.

What’s the “conspiracy” in fluoride?? Why do you label everyone a conspiracy theorist that differs in oppinion than you. Why did you go posting F*&cked up things on all my family videos of me and my kids? Do you think that it’s a conspiracy theory that fluoride is put in your drinking water? You could easily look at your counties water report lik I did. Is it a conspiracy theory that companies used to pay to bury the sh*t or that it’s in the water, juice, teflon, food, toothpaste, mmm vitamin F
Oh lawdy. We’ve got a conspiracy theorist. As soon as you brought up the “fluoride controversy” I lol’d hard.
You know what? Keep living inside of your paranoid bubble thinking “the man” is going to get you based on evidence given by your Weekly World News. Perhaps 9/11 was an inside job as well? lololololol
Oh, and Todays GLOBAL lifespan is in NO WAY reflective of all the fucked up things we’ve put into effect in the past 20 years LIKE cellphones, Genetically modified foods, BUt the rate of Cancer is now 1 in 3 for a lifetime. Oh that can’t have anything to do with the pesticides on our food or leaching in our water?? Or the high ass rate of autism?? Or the lowering of the populations IQ? OR that 33% of North Americas bees are gone? Genetically modified plants make Genetically modified pollen.
Oh, I like your logic. Since there’s so many things that can kill us, lets just bombard ourselves with all of them, and then better yet lets put it in our food, and lets feed the cows we’re gonna eat genetically modified grain, and pump them with hormones, and kill all the benificial bacteria in our milk, and spray all our vegetables with round up, lets not stop there! Lets dump fluoride in our water and hooorraay, we’re all gonna die anyways, might as well be coughing up blood.
Wow thanks for the help
Did you know that your computer emits “cancer causing” radiation? Why stop at organic foods? Why not completely eliminate all “cancer causing” sources? Do away with your cell phone; Do away with your computer. Live in your tiny protected fortress of solitude wondering why the global lifespan is in record highs despite the amount of store-bought foods people buy and the perilous risks that they take.
It’s totally opinionated. The matter of “taste” varies from person to person, thus should not be used in a debate such as this. It’s like trying to argue whether The Titanic film or Shrek film is better.
There is no difference in organic and storebought foods, and studies show that there is absolutely no nutritional difference what so ever.
Our lifespan is in record highs, and the majority of people eat store-bought foods. Store-bought foods are completely harmless.
Well try it my freind….get an organic tomato and a conventional one…taste the difference…you would lie if you said no. Organic is better and do a litle research check it out. WHy eat contaminated food when you can eat healthy?
There is absolutely no difference between organic and non-organic foods, nor is their proof that one is more nutritional than the other.
Getting organic food products with the USDA Organic label is the way to go. That way you know it’s 95% organic or more. If you’re trying to go green all the time, make sure you see the USDA Organic label on the product. If it doesn’t have the label, it’s not worth buying. Organic food with the label is the best deal.
