Some products that have no GMO's are labeling so. It would be good if all products that do not contain GMO would label so. Then everyone would know if it is not labeled then it contains GMOs.

Check out Amy's Kitchen products labeled NO GMOs. [link to www.amys.com]
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17036978


It would be to their advantage to do so. People who don't want to eat GMO foods would buy their products for sure, and so would others. I buy Conoco gas because they have a sign that says it contains no ethylnol (may not be spelled right).

I was thinking. If, the manufacturers of this do not wish to label their products, fine. Then why not the other non-gmo manufacturers take it upon themselves to label their products as NON-GMO. Basically if these non-gmos corporations label their foodstuffs as such then that would be just as good. If done correctly a good marketing firm could pull it off, and in the process make millions. I know if I were a foodstuffs supplier I would label my stuff as non-gmo, just to throw in monsantos face.

The biggest problem we have is ignorance. Most people just don't give a damn.

However, I have had VERY GOOD results educating people about GMOs using this one fact: Animals fed GMOs DO NOT HAVE ANY GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN. This is because, according to the Alliance of Natural Health, the grandchildren of rats fed GMO corn were born sterile.

That kind of stops people in their tracks....

GMO meat is not approved for consumption - yet. You can avoid the meat from animals fed GMO grain by buying only grass fed animal meat.

Re: You don't want to label our food? We will label it OURSELVES!!
According to the list on the website, the following should be labeled as GMO.
It seems to me, as others have suggested,
it would be far easier to label products with no GMO ingredients.

Might even be easier just to hang a huge label over the Grocery store sign
as it looks as though all prepared foods are now poisoned. :(


From OP's link:

SHOULD be labeled:
Anything that contains: NON-ORGANIC corn, NON-ORGANIC soy, NON-ORGANIC canola, NON-ORGANIC cottonseed and/or any of the derivatives made from them.
Animal products (meat, dairy, eggs) that are not organic can contain genetically modified hormones and were probably fed GMO food!
Most chemical additives to food are made from GMO corn and soy.
Sugar! Much of the sugar in the US is made from GMO sugar beets, including brown sugar.

Here is a partial list of high-risk ingredients:Corn Syrup


Corn Starch

Corn oil

Cornmeal

Fructose

Dextrose

Glucose

Soy meal

Lecithin

Isoflavin

Tofu

Soy Protein Isolate

TVP (textured vegetable protein) Vitamin E


Xanthamgum

Tempeh

Vitamin B-12

Baking powder

MSG

Yeast extract

Modified food starch

Vegetable Oil

Cottonseed Oil

Canola Oil

Aspartame

Food Colorings

Like the Indian farmers who beat the crap out of a Monsanto rep, in a field, who went to India to "explain" why India lost ALL of it's rice crops (their main staple) this year because of a bad batch of GM seeds. The farmers whupped this guys ass and put him in the hospital while he was trying to "sow" his propaganda.

We should do the same. They saturate the parks, dog parks and kids playgrounds with Roundup constantly here. It's Phoenix, and it's all stones with maybe a lone weed now and again.

The Parks and recreation and town council (it's the town of Surprise) all ignore my bitching. One more thing that proves the government on all levels doesn't give a crap about us or our health. Poisoning kids in a park. Meh.
