[quote=Anonymous][size=12][quote=Anonymous]So if I choose organic simply for the health reasons (i.e. I don't want pesticides or growth hormones in my milk) and the other issues (small family farms, etc.) aren't my priority (got nothing against those issues, LOL, just not my priority), is Horizon fine? Now I'm getting worried![/quote] [color=darkblue] I actually read somewhere in a report that (was looking the link to post here but can't find it sorry) that Horizon uses only a percentage of organic products in its milk production, and that their cows aren't kept in the best conditions. I was turned off by that. Based on that report I switched to Stony Field which uses 100% organic products. The rule of thumb is; If a product has the USDA symbol it must be 100% organic else they can't use it. Indeed, companies are using the "organic" label to mislead consumers even though not all the ingredients are organic. I also purchase Organic Eggs from Pete and Gerry's, Natures Promise ORGANIC CAGE FREE EGGS, Organic bread and fruits/veggies as much as I can. I got to say: wholefoods website and print coupons, or visit the companies websites where they sometimes have coupons. I would watch FOOD, INC to get a really good insight on Organic food/practices. Hope this helps :lol: Lorena [/size] [/color][/quote]
