Almost all the "natural" fruits, vegetables and meats we eat are not "natural" at all. The veggies are usually the result of years of cross-breeding, and the meats are usually from domesticated animals that have been artificially bred and fed. Perishable foods are treated with refrigeration (artificial) and/or protective chemicals (artificial).

"Natural" food sounds healthy, warm & fuzzy, but really, when you look closely, how "natural" is it? I had some "natural" cheddar cheese at breakfast, but come on, cheese is not natural! Like most things we eat, it is the result of a staggering amount of human intervention and artificial processing.

As far as evaluating a food source, the "natural" label is a largely meaningless, crude, and unreliable guide at best.
