The fact is, the anti-GMO hysterics are putting out tons and tons of pure bullshit about GMO's being "poison" and whatnot, so any food with the label "GMO" on it is going to be avoided like food is now "gluten free" as a marketing gimmick.
Meanwhile the "organic" food producers aren't a bunch of hippies dancing through their fields singing "Inch By Inch," they are a multi-BILLION dollar business that uses herbicides and pesticides also.
And they make those billion$ by charging twice or even 3 or 4 times what non-organic food costs.
If you want REAL organic food, frequent the farmer's markets in your area, if you have them.
We do from spring until fall, here in Sheboygan, down at Fountain Park on 8th and Ontario.
