Heinz Ketchup blocks WTFRLY on facebook after GMO Ketchup article | |
| 008-80 User ID: 6694591 12/11/2012 01:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've been wanting to try making homemade ketchup. Quoting: 008-80 This one looks like a good starting point: [link to www.skinnytaste.com] Ingredients: 6 oz can tomato paste 1/4 cup honey (or agave) 1/2 cup white vinegar 1/4 cup water 1 tsp sugar 3/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp onion powder 1/8 tsp garlic powder Directions: Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat; whisk until smooth. When it comes to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat and cover until cool. Chill and store refrigerated in a covered container. Good recipe with a caveat: almost all tomato paste has added sugar. Since most sugar today is manufactured from sugar beets and since over 90% of sugar beets grown in the US are GMOs, please use all organic ingredients to insure you are not inadvertently introducing GMOs into your homemade recipes. Remember that almost all corn, canola and cotton seed (oils), soy and sugar beets grown in the US are genetically modified. The only exception you can count on being not GMO are those that are labeled certified organic. Get yourself educated so you can protectmyou and your family from these poisons. be an activated citizen and contact food companies and insist they source a non-GMO replacement for use in their processes. Access this link for a list of foods of food additives that contain corn. [link to cornfreedom.com] [link to mayashappyplace.blogspot.com] Access this link for a list of foods and food additives that contain soy. Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware sugar was added to paste sometimes. From Wiki... [link to en.wikipedia.org] In the USA, tomato paste is concentrated tomato solids (no seeds or skin), sometimes with added high fructose corn syrup, and with a standard of identity (see 21 CFR 155.191). |

Exactly, companies are hiding behind the lack of governance in that area. The only way to change that is for people to vote with their dollars once they become aware. #WTFRLY?

User ID: 29686159 12/13/2012 12:19 PM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I see in my local food store that there is a company called "organic (R)' in the produce section. They put there name on the front label organic. They are not organic but for the sheep not knowing any better they would look at the label and think it's organic. This company is totally deviant in their advertising practice. Spirituality is the opposite of religion, religion is a substitute for spirituality. Spirituality is a direct connection to the creator the most high. The Kingdom of God Is Within All. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29820355 They blocked our page on facebook because we were replying to comments others had made, showing them the article on the disinfo. The only way to make a difference is to stop buying, as unoriginal and idealistic as that sounds. Look what happened with the pink slime controversy, it just takes enough people talking. #wtfrly?
