Ask an Attorney what "Natural" means on food labels..

"Next to nothing!"

With the nation finally waking up to the sad reality that truly healthy food doesn’t come in a box, food manufacturers are desperate to keep shoppers fooled into thinking highly processed food products are good for them. How do companies get away with this? Because the federal government lets them.

But it’s not for a lack of trying. Read on folks. It will only take 45 seconds.. (sorry, I'm way too tired to write my own stuff)               Just started "Insanity!"

Natural. It's ain't organic!

Rise Up People! Big Corporation is Here!

Corporations write our legislation. They control our systems of information. They manage the political theater of electoral politics and impose our educational curriculum. They have turned the judiciary into one of their wholly owned subsidiaries. They have decimated labor unions and other independent mass organizations, as well as having bought off the Democratic Party, which once defended the rights of workers. With the evisceration of piecemeal and incremental reform—the primary role of liberal, democratic institutions—we are left defenseless against corporate power. What's next? Us! Read on folks...

Rise up or Die! 

WHAT THE HELL IS "FARM WASHING?"

farm·wash·ing (noun): A marketing technique used by some industrial food producers in which idyllic images of farming are deployed to create misleading messages about how their products are made.

In recent years more and more consumers have expressed distrust with the way most of our food is grown, processed, and handled before we eat it. Many people have even taken to growing their own food to ensure that it is organic, or grown without use of chemical alteration. In addition, many companies have also tried to capitalize on this movement by using more organic ingredients and presenting themselves as green companies. Some of these claims are valid but some, however, consist of little more than companies trying to present themselves as users of organic ingredients when in actuality they are just using the organic movement as a marketing ploy. This is referred to as farmwashing.

THE GUBMENT IS USING YOUR TAXES TO PROMOTE JUNK FOOD!

Hey, it's Marco! When I walk on by, girls be looking like damn he fly! I pimp to the beat, walking down the street in my new la freak, yeah...This is how I roll, animal print, pants outta control, What?? Oh, Oh, wait! Sorry! That's what I get for workin' with my Ipod on... Anyway... With rates of obesity, diabetes, and nearly every other major health problem rising each year, why has the United States decided to heavily subsidize junk food? Farmers around the country choosing to grow healthy crops like chard, broccoli, and spinach simply do not have the government funding that those growing massive amounts of corn and soy beans (of which above 90% of each are genetically modified) do. Does the U.S. government really think that fruits and vegetables are not as important as grains which are used mostly for processing harmful food items? It may be time for a policy change. Wouldn't you agree?
