How many ways can you spell "BULLSHIT?"

Dear Friend,

According to a study published by the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, organic food has no nutritional or health benefits over ordinary food.

Interestingly, they never even addressed the insecticide and herbicide chemical load of non-organic produce. Well, maybe everything I've said, lived by, taught, and read about the subject is BULLSHIT.

Mmmm. There is one nagging bit of info about this report. I went to the schools website, and poked around their financials. It seems the main contributor to the school's research is The Welcome Trust, The trust was established to administer the fortune of the American-born pharmaceutical magnate Sir Henry Wellcome.

Through a series of mergers, Wellcome Pharmaceutical became GlaxoWellcome, then GlaxoWellcome merged with SmithKline Beecham, to form current pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline.

I have all the faith in the world of your ability to do the math.

PS: Want a little GMO High Fructose Corn Syrup with that BULLSHIT??
