But why?

What is commonplace today would be considered synthetic decades ago. Look at the breed of plants we grow, animals we raise, and staple foods (cheese) we eat.

That's not what synthetic means.

Even then, many would extend the unease I expressed to include some of the things you mentioned too.

By all means, define synthetic and explain why we should avoid “synthetic” foods.
No it is not. Creatine and other substances are not synthetic either.
