One thing that organic has NEVER meant is toxin free. What would be inteteresting is to assay for toxins from a range of products that are labeled organic. There are so many ways that toxins could contaminate an organic compliant product that it is mind boggling.
>From being handled after commercial produce by grocery store workers to the water the produce is sprayed with. Organic does not mean free of toxins, never did, even before the USDA got into the game. Specifying what has been used on the product is helpful, adhereing to a code of ethics and spot inspection as well as assay would also be helpful. You can call it what ever you want, if standards are maintained people WILL buy it.
