I understand Mendel, what you are saying. But I totally disagree with you about Trudeau being a fraudulent quack. The reason is that many of the things he mentions in his book, I already knew to be true before I even picked up the book. And I do think that organic food is much better for you. It's notfull of growth hormones ,pesticides, and chemicals. yes, ANY food regardless of whether its organic or not has the potential to become contaminated. but personally, i'd rather take my chances with the organic food instead, because "regular food" is already icky without the contaminant.
