Several days ago someone posted regarding the active ingredient in the herbicide Round-up, glyphosate, is now being detected in common breakfast cereals. I can’t locate the comments, but forum members may also be interested to know that glyphosate is also being found in California wines. One hundred percent of California wines tested for glyphosate result in a ‘positive’.

Sickening. Everything is poisoned. I have to assume even organic stuff is getting affected by glyphosate since I read this article:
75% of Air and Rain Samples Contain Monsanto’s Round Up
Pretty horrible state of affairs.

Anonymous@daisy, organics are definitely not immune. There are so many companies who are following organic practices but can’t call themselves organic because of things like this. It’s in the water, the air, everywhere.

AnonymousA couple of years ago I drove through California Central Valley. All I was seeing were fields and fruit trees but I was smelling an awful chemical scent that I couldn’t pinpoint the origin of. It took me a while to realize that farmers were tilling their fields and that was what I was smelling. Gone gone the times when fields smelled of manure.
On the same trip, at some point I see a big sign for an organic orchard. Next field down the road a crop-duster was spraying the not-so-organic orchard. Guess no one told the wind that it should not push the chemicals into the organic orchard because it surely did.
Poison is everywhere; I am sure it’s even in my home grown fruit and veggies.

At some point, things will have to be grown in greenhouses with special filtration systems to be pesticide free. Heck, we’re probably already at that point.

Anonymous@daisy, that would help for sure but you need to start designing a line of fashionable bio-hazard suits as well. We are absorbing that stuff from the air too, I am sure.
PS: How “Biosafe by Daisy” sounds? 🙂

AnonymousI’m so happy we buy locally sourced made wine. We are in Washington state. There’s a few brewing companies of beers and wines that refuse to use anything but non-gmo products. I love it.

@Dark Future, I’ll give you a commission for the great idea. 🙂
