If there were any chemicals, at least the chemicals I use detectable on any foods ****ing ever (as long as the operator followed the label instructions) there is no ****ing way it would be on the market. EPA would shut that shit down like a bullet to the brain. The EPA has been trying to get rid of atrazine for ****ing decades, because you know, politics, but they run different studies trying to find it anywhere and just can't do it, so we still have atrazine.
I had a broker tell me off the record that a chick he was banging at a samples lab said there was an organic sample that came through that had more PPM of glyphosate than any of the conventional samples they had.
Simple truth is that conventional crops are subject to far more scrutiny by far more regulatory bodies than any of the "healthier" shit out there. It's a marketing gimmick because enough soccer moms out there have more dollars than sense and can't do appropriate research, then tell all their idiot friends ZOMG THEY'RE POISONING MY BABIES!!!1!!
If you want to have an in earnest discussion, I'd be happy to, outside of this thread, but no, nothing you can find in the supermarket has been soaked in glyphosate.
