Why I am a Vegan

[Nía]

One of the problems with Organic is that a lot of times you can have GMO corn or chemicals and oils and nutrients derived from gmo vegetables that are then blended or mixed into a product labeled as organic.

Wow, if this was true, this would imply horrible and corporate ethics and organic standards (or lax controls) in the States, and this would really be sad. As far as I am aware that's definitely not the case in Europe (might still be worth double-checking foodstuffs from the States, and other countries like China)... That's of course not the way organic foods should be produced and organic advocates strive for. (Still, chances even under such circumstances would be much better to ingest and pay for less substances like the ones you mentioned - GMOs, substances derived from GMOs, chemicals, oils - with organic foods than with conventional ones.) Grow your own, as much as possible, if only on a windowsill, and prepare your own foods, as this benefits a M/B/S complex in many ways - plus many other-selves and the Earth itself.
