With all the hysterics and innuendos aimed at non-organics, I'm not surprised people are scared.

"Frankenfoods!"
"Poison!"
"Corporate greed!"

And so on...

Procter and Gamble had to take Amway to court to get them to knock off the "P & G is satanic" rumors, which did hurt P & G's bottom line.

Meanwhile, since Chipotle went organic, they have a nightmare of E. Coli outbreaks, in multiple states.
