NORGANIC
(adjective) Describing any food or agricultural practice which may technically satisfy Big Food's newest definition of "organic", but which is far from the common understanding of the word. From "not really organic", hence: NORGANIC.
"That $9 Baby Greens Salad Mix should have a "NORGANIC" label on it when you consider that it was mono-farmed by an Agribusiness 2000 miles from here, vacuum-sealed in unrecyclable plastic, and picked by poorly paid migrant workers"
