Rolla, ND
It's a bait and switch.

It creates an image of one "type" of food.

And then it creates an image of another.

Neither of which tell the whole story.

Why doesn't it show a bunch of organic chickens being slaughtered? Or any other animal from what it is promoting?

And the whole organic thing, it creeps in there even in the trailer the bit of New Age religion that assumes the life force is better in organic.

Food has made people sick throughout history, going organic doesn't change that. Death is a very natural thing.

The basic idea of the whole thing is a religion, and marketing.

Fundamentally, it's quit spending your money with them, spend it with us instead.

I'm not that much of a fan of marketing based on isn't the other fellow such a scoundrel and religious assumptions that I cannot abide by.

What I see with the food being produced and certified organic? I see crops that show obvious nutrient deficiencies, visually clear when you drive by. That's not going to produce nutritionally better food.

Now I'm sure there are organic producers that don't have such crops, but the certification is not based on nutrition, or whether or not the food is somehow better, it's based on following a philosophical set of rules. Rules not based on producing the best nutritional food, but on following a set of religious precepts. Precepts that the same substance if it can be for instance mined is great, but if made by man is dead and to be avoided lacking in a life force and therefore will not nourish your life force even though it might test the same or even better nutritionally.
