Organic Food Will Kill You
Well the spinach that's been making so many people sick across 19 states and has killed 1 person so far has been narrowed down to Earthbound Farms organic spinach. (Which also happens to be the brand I usually buy.)
Organic means no artificial pesticides or fertilizers are used.
For fertilizer, manure is used instead.
Gee, I wonder where all that e. coli came from?
When was the last time a spinach salad grown with chemical fertilizers killed anyone?
Just a thought...

Huh?
I allow comments and don't censor them. Or at least haven't yet.

sorry, I had posted a comment a while back on this and it said it was awaiting approval. Anyway, here is the gist of it...
Over all the evidence for organic farming far surpasses the first major "outbreak" of any issues. Organic farming has been around for how many years now?
How many people around the world die from pollution associated with chemical based farming? Let's take a look.

Cancer, immunodeficiency diseases, thyroid disease, neurological disease, rashes, skin and eye irritation, breathing problems, the list just keeps going. And it's not just a couple of people that it's effecting. It's millions. There are entire populations in Africa and South America that have been effected by fertilizer plants pumping toxins into the air and water.
To continue living the way we do is complete folly and disastrous. It's not even an argument anymore. These are facts.

every time I post my comment with links it says it's being held for approval.

Found it. All those links triggered the spam filter, and I get spammed so much that I had disabled notification of unapproved comments.
