Organic Food?!
I know organic food is free from pesticides, herbacides, and unnatural fertilizers, but what about all the pollution it gets when it rains!? Is anything grown outside truly organic!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

~*~ Great thought!. I guess that the only completely organic food would have to be grown in a greenhouse hydroponicly or in sterilized dirt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Probably not!.!.!.!.if you look at it in the sense that all rain contains some acid or chemical!.!.!. then there isn't really any REAL organic food!. But i guess organic food is just the food that has been less exposed to chemicals than other foods!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Organic foods are produced according to certain production standards, meaning they are grown without the use of conventional pesticides, artificial fertilizers, human waste, or sewage sludge, and that they were processed without ionizing radiation or food additives!.[1] Livestock are reared without the routine use of antibiotics and without the use of growth hormones!. In most countries, organic produce must not be genetically modified!.
Organic food production is legally regulated!. Currently, the United States, the European Union, Japan and many other countries require producers to obtain organic certification in order to market food as organic!.
Historically, organic farms have been relatively small family-run farms[2] — which is why organic food was once only available in small stores or farmers' markets!. However, since the early 1990s organic food has had growth rates of around 20% a year, far ahead of the rest of the food industry, in both developed and developing nations!. As of April 2008, organic food accounts for 1-2% of food sales worldwide!. Future growth is expected to range from 10-50% annually depending on the country!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Non organic food is sprayed or fertilized as you say during the day!. Organic means to me they do it at night!. Organic is what you want it to mean!. There are no true natural fertilizer, but all fertilizers a natural!. Anything on this earth is natural!. Pollution, chemicals, generically modified and artificial thing!.They are Natural and organic unless the don't come from this earth!. These are just words!. I will not buy organic stuff!. I refuse to pay the extra money for someone else idea of Natural or organic!. In order for fertilizer to be organic you would have to trace the feed and water back to when the cow or animal was born and even before generation before!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
