Why do they allow something to be labelled organic, but yet it can't be used on a USDA organic farm? Isn't that just a bit confusing??

They say its tested for pharmaceuticals and the wiki page says its heated to 176 degrees to degrees to destroy pathogens. But the stuff is really just sewage sludge, and since it could contain small amounts of limitless numbers of chemicals, it really seems to be tarnishing the word organic. I've probably already posted about this topic before but I guess the shock and dismay never wears off.... here I am posting about it again.

Good point. The term "organic" has been wrong from the start. (at least when being used to describe a type of farming) In Agriculture something that is technically "organic" means that it is derived from "life" meaning plant, animal, fungi, bacteria etc. i.e. it is made of carbon.
At some point it became a word that is vague and indiscernable from it's original meaning, it became another club to join and enjoy the benefits from.

Too much bending... creates a circle rather than a path forward...
