Every farmer I've tested has proven to be organic.  They've all contained
carbon.

Actually, we need to come up with another word to use for products that
have been grown and processed without the use of chemical additives. 
Organic is a chemistry term that refers to the presence of carbon in a
compound.  Water is not organic.  Diamonds are.  It's sloppy language to
try to use organic to mean "naturally produced".  Someone needs to coin a
new word.
