Tell Florida’s Natural: Glyphosate-Contaminated Orange Juice Isn’t 'Natural!'
Organic Consumers Association
When you buy food labeled “natural,” you probably expect it to not contain “unnatural” ingredients—like agrochemicals known to cause cancer.
But as we’ve found with some other so-called “natural” products, that’s not always true.
The latest “natural” product to test positive for Monsanto’s Roundup weedkiller? Florida’s Natural orange juice.
TAKE ACTION: Tell Florida’s Natural: Orange Juice with Roundup Weedkiller Isn’t ‘Natural’
In 2017, Moms Across America tested Florida’s Natural orange juice, plus the five top-selling orange juice brands—Tropicana, Minute Maid, Starter Bros, Signature Farms and Kirkland—for glyphosate.
All six brands tested positive for the chemical, best known for being the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup. Glyphosate levels ranged from 4.33 parts per billion (ppb) to an alarming 26.05 ppb.
Last week, Moms Across America ran the same tests again. Again, all six brands tested positive—including Florida’s Natural.
Please help us let Florida’s Natural know that consumers don’t want weedkiller in their O.J.
Thank you!
