Fast Company raises some interesting question about Wal-Mart and its organic food…

The Cornucopia Institute, a farm policy research group based in Wisconsin has been taking a lot of shots at Wal-Mart concerning the retailer’s organic food labeling practices. For one, the organization charges that Wal-Mart’s signage misrepresents nonorganic food as organic. There are photos on Cornucopia’s web site backing up the organization’s allegations. According to The Wall Street Journal, “The organic-food industry has mushroomed into a juggernaut with nearly $14 billion in sales in 2005 and annual growth of roughly 20%,” and, “food empires like Dean Foods Co. and Danone SA now churn out organic products, and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. has become a major seller of organic food.”

And later…

Is Cornucopia just picking on the big guy, or are Wal-Mart’s organic retail practices really questionable?

You be the judge.
