If you have bought in to organic/natural vegetable gardening, you don't need any more reason to not use RoundUp.  When I listen to the experts on the radio each week recommend using it, then I know not everyone thinks this way. 

Commercial use is very common.  It is sprayed on our food crops.

this article is an interesting read:

Don Huber is the pre-eminent expert on the subject.  He spoke at ACRES last year.  He is also an expert on plant nutrition and plant disease.  We have one of his books on plant nutrition.  He has published much on glyphosate.
