>You know, if it's been over an hour and no-ones taken the original bait yet
Anon what's your agenda?
is it to prevent people from learning truth about the health hazards of coffee?
most people know of the pleasures of drinking coffee but not many people know about the dark side toxic side of coffee,
you know people like you are trying to prevent the truth to be made known are very dishonest people,
I would even go and say that people like you are VERY EVIL people.

What, are you one of those dishonest coffee growers producers who is aware of the dangerous aspects of the coffee industry but is trying to hide the truth
because your ONLY goal is to sell as much coffee as possible to those stupid gullible idiots in The FIRST WORLD countries and you don't care if they drink coffee that was grown using tons of toxic chemicals,
or if it has toxic molds growing on it, or if they drink dark roast coffee?

Any we know that in 95% cases dark roasting is done on a very shitty quality coffee beans to cover their shitty flavor.

Get a life asshole and stop acting like truth suppressing swine.
Let the people to learn all aspects of coffee the good and the bad.
And let people to make wise educated choices that are good for their health.

>--but the question arises how do we the consumers know if particular coffee is really ORGANIC ??????
>Everything is ORGANIC now.
Well lets look into the ORGANIC claims of coffee.

Here is a very interesting response to the statement in that article that the solution to avoid massive amounts of toxic pesticides in coffee is to drink ORGANIC coffee.

"Wow, there are a lot of problems with this article.
I'll name a few: organic does NOT mean pesticide free or chemical free (they simply must use "natural" "organic" pesticides, which does not mean they are harmless to us or the environment).
Shade grown and bird friendly do not mean pesticide free either, though "Bird Friendly" certification by the Smithsonian requires products to also be organic.
Fair trade is not just a referral to the way workers are treated but also requires certain environmental standards, such as prohibited use of certain chemicals.
Fair trade is not regulated by the government but by third party non-profits. Check your facts here people.
There is simply no simple solution to keeping pesticides out of your food except to buy directly from a source you trust or grow it yourself."

As you can see we the consumers must be very alert who do we trust.
Just think about it. For many countries coffee is their biggest or one of the biggest income source, so of course they will do anything necessary to protect their coffee crops.
And that includes using whatever necessary types of chemicals (and whatever necessary amounts) needed to protect their only source of income,
and the health aspects of the final coffee consumers in the First World Countries are of no concern to them.
To feed their families is the main focus, not if the particular chemicals used on coffee plantations will harm you will give you cancer.
