Kind of like the way sane people accept non-organic medicine is better than organic (herbal) stuff.
Now i am sane, and i accept/know that pharmaceutical industry makes more effective drugs. But those drugs are there to treat a problem. Those drugs
are considered poison even by pharmaceutical companies,very low dose one - but still poison.
Food is there not to treat anything. Food gives calories, vitamins,minerals and certain molecules we cannot produce. Why adding toxins to it makes it
better? Why messing with its genes is necessary making it better?
I do not say that all additives are there for a wrong reason. Some people (including me) will have trouble to buy food of the same type if only
organic one was available.
However good comparison will be not drugs - but air. "Organic" air cannot be as clean as filtered/processed one. But most people meet
filtered/processed air in malls or other crowded places, where air conditioners and such are needed and where only 30 percent of fresh air is used -
the rest is recycled. What is healthier - air in New York or air in malls in New York?
