No doubt it is and it is in opposition to GMOs. Animals are know to reject GMO food, to be more discerning than people in many perceptual realms.

Dad: "Son, remember those GMO Meatballs we had for Dinner this Evening?"
Son: "Yes, Dad." " I didn't think they tasted very good."
Dad: "Well, Son, Your Mother fed Rover some of the left-overs, and he's just trying to get the taste out of his Mouth."

Monsanto Cucumbers Cause Genital Baldness -- Immediately Banned in Nova Scotia
A six-month study by AgriSearch, an on-campus research arm of Dalhousie University, has shown that genetically modified (GM) cucumbers grown under license to Monsanto Inc. result in serious side effects including total groin hair loss and chafing in "sensitive areas", leading to the immediate and total ban of sales of all that company's crop and subsequent dill pickles.
The tracking study of 643 men and women in Nova Scotia came about after reports began to surface about bald field mice and the bald feral cats that ate them being discovered by farmers on acreages growing the new crop.
"The bald wild animals raised a huge flag and we immediately obtained subpoenas for the medical records of all 600 plus adults who took part in focus groups and taste tests of the cucumbers by Monsanto in Canada," said Dr. Nancy Walker, Director of Public Health Research at Dalhousie. "Fully 3/4 of the people who ate these cukes had their crotch area hair fall out. This is not a joking matter at all...these people now have hairless heinies."

(46,345 posts)I know practically nothing about this Oregon organic organization, and their own website is hardly an impartial source.
I'm still leery about organic because of outlandish claims and high prices.
