I get the quotes on "artisan," but why put them around two terms with very clear definitions?
Fair trade: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_trade https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_trade
Organic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_certification https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_certification
- thisacctforreal 9y agoI loosely assumed it was because they don't have much faith in them actually being organic or fair-trade.
- kodablah 9y agoFrom the top of your organic link: "Requirements vary from country to country". And the fair trade article also lists concerns with over-certification and validation consistency. To pretend they are very clear definitions when applied to products is wrong.
