the'd clear cut a great dea of land next to and behind me last winter just after
hunting season, the deer have gotten bad enough that I'm sweeping poop off my
porch, they're eating the leaves from my fruit trees and almost everything else
I also have the abundant water supply they tend to enjoy, I'm screwed all the way
around

So what about some of these chemicals.

For example. Baking Soda. Calcium Carbonate. Silicone Dioxide.

These chemicals are pretty damn safe and necissary for a lot of cooking. If you like eating things like bread, and yogurt. Some synthetic chemicals are really OK. The worry in food isn't that someone will eat a synthetic chemical, but that someone will eat dangerous pesticides and fertilizers that accumulate in the body over a lifetime and cause cancers. I do 85% of my shopping at the local hippy co-ops and farmers markets, and I'm perfectly happy getting bread made with sodium bicarbonate or cheese that has added minerals created synthetically. I've even done some of the synthesis's in chemistry classes. It's not dangerous at all. Some of what is happening in Organic regulations is a scam, (for example, the amendment to a bill that said organic chicken could be fed conventional feed if organic feed was too expensive) but not this shit about putting baking soda in organic bread.

if you start reading into the legislation, you'll find that chemical pesticides
are approved for use to a limited degree, aparently 5% of the fertilizer used
in organic farms can also be synthetic

That isn't what you posted about, you posted about food additives.

I agree there are some problems with weakening organic standards and conflicts of intrest within the industry, but I don't think this food additive stuff should be that controversial.

my stetement was in response to yours regarding pesticides and fertilizers

now let me ask you, how many people used potasium phosphates, phosphoric acids,
ozone, magnesium sterate or carageenan (considered natural) prior to the last 50
years, how many people buy these products to sanitize or cook with today, when is
the last time you walked into the grocery store and searched for a jar of alginate
