Organic food no better for us? It's just a conspiracy once again

[Sue Jenks]

Well it had to come didn't it? Promoting all over the media that organic food is no bettter for us. Who are they trying to kid? They know that the environment, and all insects are being destoyed by spraying chemicals. They know that our waterways,rivers and seas are polluted with chemicals. They know that anti-biotics in the food chain will always cause us all damage in the end. AND THEY KNOW WHEN ALL THE INSECTS AND THE BEES ARE GONE.... THE WHOLE FOOD CHAIN WILL BREAK DOWN AND THERE WILL BE NOTHING AND NOBODY LEFT.

Yet they can't cope that sales of non-organic produce are slumping by the day because people have finally come to realise the truth and to understand what really is good for us and our environment.

I guess it's just a conspiracy to create mass movement back to the old ways. The old ways that have got us where we are today. But I think we all know better than that don't we?

It's a disgrace that some journalists would write the articles in the first place, when will these people wake up and see the bigger picture - we can all stand up and speak out, stop buying the newspapers write to the journalists concerned its completely irresponsible on a world wide scale.

It's the old biotech/agri-chem/supermarket lobby again, scared that they will get found out for turning out processed pap and calling it 'food'. They hate the idea that people may actually want real food again - because they don't know how to produce it anymore. Most farm soils are nothing more than chemical-dependent, sterile mudpits that would be incapable of supporting crops without incessant applications of fertilizer - and people need to learn to grow their own food again -that way they won't be fooled by the industrial lobby into paying money for rubbish, because they will know what real food tastes like.

This is ridiculous. The same people would tell you that the arm you were born with is no better than an artificial arm just because they don't have the technology to measure the difference!

At one time, people honestly believed that the earth was flat, and revolved around the sun. And it was heresy to say otherwise...but, of course, those people were WRONG!

I think it is dreadful too. The government added health safety warnings on cigarette packets and stopped all advertising. They should do the same for non organic foods. And any advertising should have a clear sign at the bottom that says

Animals,insects and the environment was harmed during the growth and production of this product.Your health and your children's health will be seriously damaged by use of or consumption of this product.Make the most of it...one day there will be nothing left!

I just don't get it all. The govt are supposed to have targets for saving the planet and they go and let some dozy old media pumpkin spread the idea that organic food is no better for us. The mind boggles. It's a joke and yes its a downright set up!

I was on a leisurely walk in the woods yesterday, minding my own business, and OUT OF NOWHERE a wasp flew into my face and stung me on the chin! I swear I did nothing to provoke such an act. In fact, I'm the kind of person who catches wasps in the house and releases them. Do you think that even the bees are angry about the lies and deceptions going on?

Because we humans certainly should be! There's only one way to win this fight. Support sustainable, organic farming practices. As you say, we can't afford to wait until the entire food chain has broken down. Start NOW or the bees will get you!

To health and prosperity,
Pamela
