I got frustrated with the term 'recycle' when I found out in the eighties that a paper company was picking up the scraps from its floor after cutting, throwing it into the next batch and labeling it 'recycled paper'

Damn; I used to see that in my cannery when I was in college. I haven't eaten pickle relish in 40 years


When I looked at the industry, I realized it was already very corrupted. We all know the difference between an organic garden and commercial produce that is unrestricted,

Organic is an interesting term (I was certified organic for Farmers' Markets); all those chemicals in commercial ag are organic, based on carbon

:-)
