Chipotle says NO to GMOs
Let's hope this trend continues..




Chipotle Makes History by Becoming First Fast Food Chain to Tag GMOs
[link to www.triplepundit.com]

snip


Let’s face it, it’s good to be first, at least if you happen to be the first to do something worthwhile. In the ongoing debate about the safety of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in our food, Denver, CO-based Chipotle Mexican Grill made what may turn out to be an important food history “first” in the United States.

The chain, who operates more than 1,450 restaurants across the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, and France, recently revealed that since March, the ingredients of their menu items have been labeled. In this case, “ingredients” also includes GMOs. This makes Chipotle the first American fast food chain to voluntarily display the presence of GMOs in its products.

Re: Chipotle says NO to GMOs
From article: According to Chipotle’s spokesman, reaction to the identity of the chain’s ingredients has not affected sales. “If anything, it engenders more trust when you’re more forthcoming about the food you serve,” he said. Chipotle is going beyond labeling GMOs, they also intend to eliminate them from their ingredients as much as possible. Yet, the chain’s new labeling won’t win high marks with diners looking for total transparency since it is only available on the restaurant’s website, and not on their in-store menus.


So they label the GMO, but only on their website? Meh. And the food is GMO. MEH! THEY AREN'T REALLY DOING SHIT!

There is no such thing as "GMO free" corn just about worldwide now.

Good luck running a Mexican restaurant without corn

Anti nuclear and anti GMO.. my kinda guy!!

Hippies? ..not so much.



I'm glad chipotle is taking a step in the right direction, but this is still far from the mark. Maybe one day I can go back, but till then I made the most bomb chicken tacos this weekend:

Organic corn tortillas slightly warmed
Organic chicken breast seared in coconut oil
Shredded cheddar
Organic lettuce
Sprinkle of iodonized salt

BOMB!!!!!! Better than any taco I've ever had! Anywhere, ever ;)

So far.. they are winning..
