Bulgaria’s Bio Baloney
It's gotta do what it says on the tin people.

magnifying-glass.jpg The Sofia Echo reports that in many cases producers are falsely labelling their products as “bio” “eco” or “organic”.

The Bulgarian National Consumer Association has sent letters to producers advising them that they are actually breaking the law by using misleading advertising.

So far they haven’t taken anyone to court but it’s nice to see the BCNA stand up for the rights of their green consumers. Unfortunately our database doesn’t list any national level ecolabels for Bulgaria, which may also be part of the problem.
