The Good Stuff | Are Food Labels a Scam? @TheGoodStuff | Uploaded October 2016 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
Many Americans these days are demanding meat, eggs and dairy from animals that have been raised humanely and without the misuse of antibiotics, hormones and steroids. Food producers have responded to this demand by selling products with various labels such as “organic”, “free range”, and “humanely treated”. But can we actually trust any of these labels, or is it all just a marketing scam?
