Organic Milk

Tom Philpott explains Why that organic label on your milk doesn't tell the whole story. It's probably the best article on the subject I've read and not too long either.

"The organic label, for all its success, sometimes complicates my job. Rather than challenge consumers to learn more about their food, the label too often lulls them into feel-good ignorance. For many consumers, 'organic' means food that's healthy, clean, and fair to farmers and farmworkers. Of course, the reality is much more complicated."
