		sandworm101 on Jan 25, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: One of biggest frauds in U.S. farm history If you are passing off one product as another, deliberately defrauding your buyers, you are running serious risks. It wont be the feds taking the farm. It will be Whole Foods' lawyers coming to recover the cost of pulling your product off shelves. And insurance doesn't cover fraud.

TFA goes into this. By the time it’s at Whole Foods it’s way too late to test for pesticides.

GMO is a different story. The fraudster in this story got caught early on co-mingling GMO with non-GMO.
