Naturalistic fallacy Memes

The magnificent irony of modern consumer psychology! People recoil in horror at "artificial chemicals" but gleefully embrace the exact same compounds when labeled as "natural." Newsflash: benzaldehyde is benzaldehyde whether it's synthesized in a lab or extracted from almonds. Both will kill you equally well in sufficient quantities! The marketing geniuses know we're suckers for the naturalistic fallacy - slap "all-natural" on a bottle of cyanide (which occurs naturally in apple seeds) and watch consumers line up to pay premium prices. Chemistry doesn't care about your shopping preferences, darling.
