Looking for the Organic seal is part of the problem. We should not have to look for organic labels. Companies should not have to pay for organic certification, and then have to raise the price of the products. In addition, how are people living in poverty able to buy all organic? These are additional problems that need to be solved. How do we do it? How long will it take? 3 years or 100 years?
No, they generally put the antibiotics to either make them grow faster, or enable to let them survive living in their own shit, which is what happens at factory feed lots. Also, giving livestock enormous quantities of antibiotics selects for bacteria that are resistant to the antibiotic and this allows "super bugs" to develop that cannot be treated with antibiotics, which are a great threat to humanity.
Well no, antibiotics destroy your gut bacteria and should only be used if really necessary! Gut bacteria keeps you healthy (hence taking probiotic). Also antibiotics in animal can in essence make humans resistant as over consumption/exposure occurs when we consume animals which have been treated with antibiotics, (which may I add is pretty much all- excessively). They say if you are going to go organic the first thing you replace is meat and poultry!
This is such propaganda. "Natural" hasn't been used to market GMOs, and in any case, the very first incidence of genetic engineering was done entirely by Mother Nature in sweet potatoes, so it was indeed a "natural" process. If organic is so great, why must the industry lie about GMOs and conventional ag to promote its products?
Actually, there are other natural genetic engineers. My favorite is the parasitic wasps which lay their eggs in the body of some caterpillar. When the eggs hatch, the wasp larvae eat their host. But the caterpillar has an immune system which would normally fight off such an invader. The wasps, therefore, use a virus to carry a gene to the caterpillar's chromosomes. The new trait disables the immune system and the wasp larvae get a free ride. Also, although I have never seen GMOs advertised as natural, and mostly not advertised at all, except to farmers, there is a case to be made that this is NOT someone doing the work of God. Every single case of a GMO on the market was made with a set of tools which were taken from nature. That includes restriction enzymes, DNA polymerase, Agrobacter tumafaciens, etc.
This guy should get an academy award. One of the best and most truthful videos on what we call food I have seen in years. Excellent!!
Whomever cast this guy deserves a medal. The actor deserves a Webby Award. Brilliant. The director? Another Webby.
very good. Thanks. We can't buy anything that is NOT labeled organic and still, we have to double check on that ! we are so screwed......

I think we as a people need to grow more and eat less.
Greed + Deception = __________
that is true... to a certain degree
It sickens me to see all of these labels are lying to me.
Shouldn't antibiotics in food be considered a good thing since they can cure disease?

All right. Thank you!
They cure infections; cause diseases.

Iodine Lithium Potassium Europium.
Is that a food or a response? Will we ever know? Tune in next week for more witty remarks!
Monsanto hates you lol.... I love you!
I love this shit. So hilarious.
You guys know this is a joke right.....
I'm so surprised there's no religious freak commenting on this raging about how "Humans can't play God's role" and all that
wait they will come the video only got 4,795, when we reach the 50k mark this will be "the apocalypse". n__n
that's true! im about to say that.. this video shows exactly why: they who did it become funnier than Himself and that is a sin!
bondy the great ignorance is the only sin...
I don't understand why people can't just look at the videos and have a laugh(Referring to both the religious "freaks" and the non-religious "freaks").
0194D cuz is not meant to be funny... comedy this days is the only way possible to criticize gov or in this case big corps...
