In my interview with Dave Chapman of Real Organic Project, we discussed the topic of organic food and its importance in today's world. Mr. Chapman emphasized the need for transparency in the organic industry, explaining that the current USDA organic certification process has become increasingly lax, allowing large corporations to exploit loopholes and undermine the integrity of the organic label. He stressed the importance of supporting local farmers who adhere to truly organic practices, as they are often overlooked by consumers who rely solely on the USDA certification. Overall, the interview shed light on the complexities and challenges of the organic food industry, and highlighted the need for consumers to be informed and discerning in their food choices.
