Organic, chemical free, natural, non-gm... are all marketing jargon that has no connection at all to what those words mean in the English language. Pretty much anything with carbon in it is organic, nothing is chemical free, natural is entirely a matter of opinion (is any agriculture “natural”?), and selective breeding is selective genetic modification (and very unnatural to boot). People claim that the new definitions for these words align with a supposedly simply guiding philosophy, but that’s not true either, the ones that are regulated simply align with lengthy, arbitrarily defined, and often inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another, regulations.
