Submission Text
A product being labeled certified organic should be just that - no petrochemicals, no synthetics, no fillers, no unpronounceable words - no lying, no deceiving the public. We have enough of that in our government, banking industry and corporations. One of your jobs is to protect and inform the public of the TRUTH in matters. Please do your job and make sure that the label "organic" is what it says it is - both in foods and non-food products. What's the point of even having things labeled, or having organic certifications if it's not to be trusted. Who can we trust? And why is trust such a difficult thing these days? Time to be responsible in all ways, personally and in business. Thank you.
