The Times' Nicole Brodeur addresses the latest round of food-related conspiracy theories in her column today, with quotes from PCC's director of public affairs Trudy Bialic to help debunk the rumor that a current bill moving through Congress would somehow ban organic foods and decimate farmers' markets as we know them in one giant win for Monsanto. Some of our acquaintances went so far as to claim to us that HR 875 would outlaw nutrients. (What?) There is a Food Safety Modernization bill, HR 875, but it's not at all what the crazies are claiming. Thanks for doing our research for us on this one, Brodeur--we'll point people towards your article.
