You presented a list of pesticides that the EPA allows to found in organic food. You did not present any info suggesting it was intentionally used. You offered reason to believe that it instead drifted.

If you got a link saying that it is used on purpose...and you just might...that's what you could post.

Then we can discuss how big business is moving heavily into organics...at which point you can expect funny-business.
