New study: Organic food no healthier than regular food
The saying "you are what you eat" is probably better known in Germany than some of the locally verse poets and thinkers. And if it is true it is to the Germans quite poor.Because
they only pay attention to the price in the supermarket and off their
brains, in the pots land compositions from sugar, fat and dye bombs,
garnished with plenty of factory farming and seasoned with a healthy
dose of ecological unconscious.Or
do people want good food and do not get it because the industry them
with their advertising million duped and manipulated results?Fact is, the Germans give a European comparison of very little money for food. And no one is forced to buy certain foods. It is also true that products labeled with the warning "E122 can affect activity and attention in children" on the shelves. And again there will be food scandals. This is approximately the span.The guests said Anne WillsFederal Minister for Food,Agriculture and Consumer Protection:"It would be goodas more consumers would not pay attention to every penny. ""If consumers deceived in the supermarket?" Anne Will asked on her show. In
the round with it: Ilse Aigner (CSU), Minister for Food, Agriculture
and Consumer, the journalist Tanja buses and Ranga Yogeshwar, the chef
Christian Henze and Stefan Genth, chief executive of the trade
association HDE.Price, quality and ecological footprintIt was about food, its production and price to quality, taste and environmental footprint. In short, it went haywire. Granted, food production and food are vast. Anne Will was trying to keep the reins in their hands and their guests on the track. More than once she reminded listeners that the discussion would be tangled - what was a fairly accurate analysis.If there was a common thread, then the initial question of responsibility. For the various problems about food. After that things are going wrong, it is were all more or less agree. Recently, a study has even scratched the beautiful image of the organic industry.U.S. scientists at Stanford University have compared a total of 233 international studies. Their conclusion after considering all the results: for the health the organic label does not really matter. However, and this must not be neglected, the organic production has a positive impact on the environment. Because fewer fertilizers and pesticides are used, for example, groundwater is less burdened.No shortage of good adviceNevertheless, many people are confused. Now
it is like a constant in discussions about the common citizen that
comes off rather badly - especially when sitting at the table only
debaters who are not ordinary people or want to be. So also with Anne Will.On good advice in any case are not lacking. The relationship with food had been lost to the people was, for example, Ranga Yogeshwar. Not his own, for his recipe, however: cook blackberry jam. Is not tastier or healthier, but feels better than purchased. Tanya makes buses for similar reasons like apple juice, told the audience.Only Ilse Aigner does not cook: "No Time". That
the Minister did not stop on the following advice: People should not
hesitate nice "look not only" the kitchen, but "also go in once and cook
yourself." And even an "appeal" Aigner had inculding. "We may not save a lot on food"The "Formula 1 of enjoyment""Good for little money", however, was the motto of chef Christian Henze. The hires himself now as a commercial kitchen for a discount store ("I stand with all my energy behind this company"). Its quite clever folk view of things: "To a modern diet to include ready meals and fast food." Since some viewers might have been listening.Henze was talking to a "Chaka, you make it!" Mentality that, optimism abounded that way. Sentences and said: "I'm moving in the Formula 1 of enjoyment." Despite finished products, of course.He called for a sense indulgence with citizens and was against black and white. Who, for example, by asking children, instead of eating grilled tofu burgers principle which could only fail. Rather, we must teach the people to find the right mix.The consumer decidesFor the round was pretty clear who makes the decisions. Stefan Genth said, the consumer. The Commission can and must choose to should not patronize you. The offer, Genth was finally big enough. Whether finished or natural, the supermarket offers on everything. He had not so far wrong.Tanja Busse's argument was met with little support. The journalist was something like the chief prosecutor at the table, yet sometimes very rapidly. She said: "The aim of the industry is to produce the most favorable means and sell high."That sounded plausible. Although Genth replied that trade has no interest in disgruntled consumers. And industry oriented to the demand.Ranga Yogeshwar interjected that this demand would be created with complex marketing only. Tanja Busse asked finally, the policy should intervene and should not rely solely on a voluntary basis. In
this phase buses had a really great moment when they go through it,
Ilse Aigner was not to deport all responsibility for Europe.For Aigner said though, that it could not prohibit nationally. But she said even if she would like to ban something.Campaigners anger at "ideal world advertising"A real enlightening answer jumped with all the comings and goings not out. Fairness it must be conceded that such discussions are not easy. Because the matter is tricky and branches and the truths lie somewhere in the gray area. Neither the industry is evil through and through, yet the consumer is stupid. This makes the debate quickly tough.Sure it would have been good if a representative of the food industry would have been one of the party. Anne had invited Will not, or would not come to the invitee?The most exciting set of the evening slipped Ilse Aigner out just before the end. As she said, the "ideal world advertising annoys me." This was "tosh". On closer inspection it was a pretty gloomy analysis of the woman from the Bavarian mountain idyll. And one that raises questions.Because basically gives the minister to the fact that the consumer is deceived and industry much there is wrong. And then it's probably the consumer, less change the situation, but in politics. Since then Aigner would be responsible.
