Beware of the Misleading "Earth Friendly, Farm Friendly" Label
By Jeff Cox
 
Be wary of the label that says, “Earth Friendly, Farm Friendly.” According to the Chefs Collaborative, “The label, which professes to be an alternative to the USDA’s National Organic Program label, is put out by the Hudson Institute’s Center for Global Food Issues. Under the terms of the certification requirements, most conventional dairy practices are acceptable. The label does not have the same standards as the USDA’s organic label.” The Hudson Institute is a right-wing think tank that grants large sums of money to support conservative causes.
