This is a huge step in granting powers for people like CODEX to regulate or entire food supply. Please check out how they believe antibiotics and HGH should be in our food.

An Unbiased Expert?

Submitted by RawfoodLiberty on Thu, 07/30/2009 - 12:41.

A recent segment of ABC's 20/20, entitled "How Good is Organic Food?" grossly misrepresented the safety and value of organically grown food crops.
The organic food critic, Dennis Avery, was identified on the 20/20 show as a former researcher for the USDA and as a leading critic of organic produce. 20/20 failed to disclose Mr. Avery's full credentials. He is presently the Director of the Center for Global Food Issues for the Hudson Institute, and the author of such books as Saving the Planet with Pesticides and Plastic: The Environmental Triumph of High-Yield Farming.
Mr. Avery's employer, the Hudson Institute, is a duplicitous, non-profit "watch dog" group that serves as a mouthpiece for big business. Hudson identifies many of its corporate sponsors on its website, including AgrEvo, Dow AgroSciences, Monsanto Company, Novartis Crop Protection, and Zeneca - the very companies whose bottom lines are most threatened by organic agriculture

I can grow my organic garden in peace, and even sell the veggies and herbs. Until the FDA starts considering them vitamins, at least.
