#152: Alan Lewis  delivers deep insights into the growing number of reasons small and mid-sized farms can't find shelf space within American grocery stores. With the arrival of AI and its impact on purchasing systems, even food coops and small Mom and Pops are  aiming to stock convenient-to-order over real, local food.Alan Lewis is the VP of Government Affairs, Stakeholder Relations, and Organic Compliance at Natural Grocers. His 2019 talk at the first annual Real Organic Symposium blew a lot of minds, as he described the massive consolidation in the natural foods industry, which has been boiled down to two distributors. In addition to his roles with IFOAM North America, the  Non-GMO Project, and the Organic + Natural Health Association,  Alan serves on the Real Organic Advisory Board.To watch a video version of this podcast with access to the full transcript and links relevant to our conversation, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/alan-lewis-food-system-betrayal-episode-one-hundred-fifty-twoThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year.

The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

The GMO Labeling Act legislation is now federal law and according to Karen Howard, CEO and Executive Director, Organic & Natural Health Association, it is not legislation that is consumer friendly or helpful. Relying on QR code technology, consumers can scan products to see if they are non-GMO or GMO. The problem is that QR codes are cumbersome and difficult to use. When a mom is shopping at a local store, kids in the cart and dinner not bought, who has time to view information with a QR code. It would be much easier to have printed labels stating the ingredients of food products. Congress has let the American people down with this new law. The idea of each state having different standards for GMO label was thought to protect consumers from the “confusion” and “increased costs” of a “patchwork quilt” of state legislation created at the hands of each state legislature. In reality, state legislation was collaboratively crafted to harmonize requirements across state lines while honoring each state’s power to enforce. Howard says tells Late Night Health listeners, all that’s been accomplished is passage of a poorly written subversion of states’ rights in exchange for mandating companies to use a “handy dandy QR code” consumers can scan with a smart phone to determine if the products in their grocery carts contain GMO ingredients. Howard blasted the legislation saying if the bill is “signed into law as is expected, consumers won’t have a clue what the intention of USDA or the FDA is, what the definition of genetically engineered means, or what products contain genetically engineered ingredients given the lack of transparency associated with the likely use of foolish QR codes on labels." Mark Alyn, host of Late Night Health, will get to the bottom of QR code GMO labeling debacle with Karen Howard, CEO and Executive Director, Organic & Natural Health Association, and find out from a consumer point of view, why this is a bad deal. air date: 8/26/16
