Has anyone tried the organic/ non-organic food detector made of coiled copper?

I found it in an organic store and the sales agent said that if you put it over food and it turns clockwise then it's organic. Counter clockwise then it's non-organic. Is this true?

Wow, the things people come up with to separate people from their money.

It's a complete scam and I would wonder about a store that carries such items. Either the owners do not understand what organic foods are or they are into ripping off their customers by selling such useless and likely expensive items. Either way I would find another health food store that is honest and knowledgeable

Um, no, this is completely ridiculous. Sorry.

never heard of it but sounds like a coax!

Just think why on earth would copper detect if the food is organic? Can it also detect if you are happy?

Can it also tell if someone is gullible enough to buy one?

I cannot believe how gullible people can be. Of course it's a scam.
