As we sat at Jane's coffee bar one day, I heard two women talking about using only organic products. I realized that she was being rather holier-than-thou about it to her companion and I was feeling sheepish myself and then I checked out a few things.
Read some labels my friends, just because it says organic does not necessarily mean it is better. Check the fat content on some products one day. And frankly, I want my chickens to have antibiotics!
Technically - Water and Oxygen are not organic because they do not contain the element Carbon.
Here's a few things that are organic BUT are they really GOOD for us:
- Carbon Monoxide
- Heroin
- Snake venom
- A pack of angry, hungry wolves
Joking aside, do not let the organosnobs get you down; your best defense is knowledge, read some articles, read some labels and if all else fails, hit them with pepper spray - it's organic!
