Funny! and sad. Lots of projecting in that. IE "organic" is a corrupted term as well

"You must be the change you want to see in the world." "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." --Mahatma Gandhi
"Preach the Gospel always, and if necessary, use words." --Francis of Assisi.
"Family farms work when the whole family works the farm." -- Adam Klaus

"Organic" labeling is an artform. If the product can not be labeled as Certified Organic, simply use the word as part of the Brand:
"Organic Traditions" All-Natural YumYums
"Organic Delights" Hair Conditioning Rinse and Styling Gel
"Fresh Organics" Gear Lubricant and Engine Degreaser

I've found a wide range of misunderstanding of what 'organic' and 'natural' means to people.
I spoke with an Amish farmer a few years back asking if his produce was organic. His response has been stuck in my head ever since. "It sure is. It's organic. But I won't lose a crop. I'll go to the spray if I have to ."
I asked a landscape guy if his compost was organic. He said it was. I asked if he had the Certifying Documents. He had no idea what I was talking about.
Sometimes people don't know what they are eating. I overheard a young lady talking about Celiac's disease: "That's why I don't eat Wheat. I prefer to eat Grain."

We can fix it! We just need some baling wire, some WD-40, a bit of duct tape and this tiny ad:
