thats not about 100% organic though.
"organic" only 95% of the ingredients have to be organic

IDK if its a thing in the uk though the "100% organic"
what I find interesting is
Usually it’ll take you 2 years to get certified as an organic producer. It might take shorter or longer depending on your situation, for example:
- 3 years for established orchards of perennial soft, top and vine fruits
- 12 months for grass for pig and poultry grazing if no banned products have been applied to soil over the previous 12 months
- 2 years for land intended for ruminant grazing and annual crops
is that only for the pig, or is there a loophole where your pigs over 12 months old are considering "organic" because they lived on an organic field for 12 months
use 2 fields, alternate which one gets banned products every 12 months, hey it's organic
there's probably tons of food labeled as "organic" thats not just like wood from illegal logging ends up in the regular market even though it's supposed to be tracked at every step of the way
also when your allowed a 5% tolerance you buy 95 organic applies, chuck 5 non organic inn the bag and make a tiny bit of profit you otherwise wouldn't. what it's all above board and legal right.
you know what would be really interesting to survey everyone involved in farming etc who use pesticides and such and to find out whether they are organic eaters or not.
not for me, but okay for theee
