What is the point of an agency that thinks it's ok to label non-organic foods as organic?
USDA's rule, in contrast, permitted products labeled "organic" to contain non-organic substances so long as producers obtained certification that organic versions of the relevant ingredients were not available. Why should it matter whether substances are on the list?My thoughts exactly.
