Bill Gates Apeel Coating Product Approved To Be Used On Organic Foods

Bill Gates Apeel coating has been approved to be used on Organic foods, the problem is, it contains Mono- and Diglycerides and the manufacturing process for appeal may involve solvents like ethyl acetate, heptane, and trace heavy metals .
Mono- and diglycerides are explicitly banned to be used on organic foods by the USDA
However, Regulators approved appeel as a fungicide, not a coating. A technical loophole that gets around organic certification rules.
So while you think you're buying clean, untouched food, you're actually getting produce treated with compounds that critics warn may leave behind residues like arsenic, lead, and palladium.”
Mono- and diglycerides are only permitted in organic production for drum drying, not as coatings, Organipeel’s use as a coating violates USDA regulations.
Apeel makes an average of $84 Million each year.
