When organic milk started to become cheap, frozen tater tots were labeled organic, and Wal-Mart came out with an organic line, I figured something was up. So, I went to the information superhighway and found someone to translate it all @ http://www.cornucopia.org/
The Cornucopia Institute is a non profit that keeps BIG-Organic in check. Yes, the corporations with the unwavering support of the gov't will even hijack the purest of all things...organic food.
Their Mission:
"Seeking economic justice for the family-scale farming community. Through research, advocacy, and economic development our goal is to empower farmers - partnered with consumers - in support of ecologically produced local, organic and authentic food."
Anyway, you can find all the latest on new organic food guidelines, laws, and f***- ups by companies taking advantage of the premium paid for the word organic. For instance, their Organic Dairy Report & Scorecard is an awesome resource. ------check it out
