The magazine was founded in 1972 in Australia; the Australia and New Zealand editions were discontinued in February 2016.

History and profile Launched in November 1972 under the direction of Ita Buttrose, the magazine's founding editor, ''Cleo'' became one of Australia's most iconic titles due to its mix of seemingly controversial content, including the first nude male centerfold (following American Cosmopolitan's nude centerfold of Burt Reynolds six months' earlier) and detailed sex advice. According to the magazine's editorial philosophy, ''"Cleo gets women, and it also strikes the perfect balance, offers a bright, l ...

Critics may also take as their subject social or government policy.

Organic Food
Organic food, ecological food or biological food are food and drinks produced by methods complying with the standards of organic farming. Standards vary worldwide, but organic farming features practices that cycle resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. Organizations regulating organic products may restrict the use of certain pesticides and fertilizers in the farming methods used to produce such products. Organic foods typically are not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents, or synthetic food additives. In the 21st century, the European Union, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Japan, and many other countries require producers to obtain special certification to market their food as ''organic''. Although the produce of kitchen gardens may actually be organic, selling food with an organic label is regulated by governmental food safety authorities, such as the National Organic Program of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) or European C ...
