Interesting, well written, and well researched. I've always had my reservations about processed foods before now and your article further reinforce my beliefs. Of course, some amount of indigestible components is required in our foods as roughage. That's why I don't have issues with organic foods.

Thank you @gentleshaid for your visit and for those kind words. Of course we need fiber in our diet. That's one of the things missing in the so-called Western diet. But we need plants, like celery, and legumes in the natural state. Not chemically modified fiber. Not fiber that is designed to thicken and adhere to food. It's the chemical alterations that make the additives noxious.
I wish you and your family a Happy New Year. Let's hope 2021 is very different from 2020.🌟
I totally agree with you. When we are talking about diets being organic, perhaps we should be laying emphasis on naturally organic foods and not the artificial ones. Organic can be synthetic as well as natural. What do you think?
The rules are byzantine. Just slapping a label on something that says organic doesn't mean anything. You are right. We still have to check ourselves and do the work. Here's a link that describes some of the regulations in the U.S. Kind of fuzzy, I think.

There are so many borderlines in the rules which manufacturers can manipulative and still stay within the law. Not sure it can get more fuzzier than this.
