Organic Water sold at SafeWay:

Slightly off topic, sorry can't resist the opportunity. They do have limes and lemons mixed in the water.


Organic Bottled Water.

Abuses of the word organic like this gives a black-eye to the meaning of organic foods. The above gimmick is really designed to part money from people who are into the organic fad.

I can't believe they got the Organic stamp of approval from the USDA. How did USDA became a party to this scam?

It seems that anything that has no synthetic pesticides, no growth hormones, no genetic modifications, no antibiotics will be readily approved by USDA as Organic produce. Is the absence of these compounds make the water magically organic?

It is kinda like the intelligence test I saw at Wally world the other day-- 1 doz eggs for $1 while the 18 pack of the same size same brand was $2--the 18 packs were still flying off the shelfs!
