Elizabeth Dougherty is a food writer and blogger. She spoke with someone at USDA who told her that sugarcane is routinely sprayed with roundup to make it ripen faster. Check out her site at elizabethdougherty.com.
I use organic sugar for all everyday stuff, and I'm using more and more honey and maple syrup, but occasionally we have used cane sugar (sugar beet sugar we never buy) for a large expensive thing, such as blackberry wine. Now I will have to cut down production and get an affordable source of organic sugar.

Thanks Sue! I would like to do that. Do you order it through Azure Standard? If so, I think I got put on your route. I will check. When is your next delivery? I will probably order two of those 50-lb sacks full.
