It’s bad enough that they are using GMO ingredients but then they spend a ton of money to prevent GMO labels so they can hide it from consumers. I’m done with their company.

They strives for a healthy image, and yet contributed $632,000 to the fight against Prop 37. For several months, the company’s Facebook page has become something of a marketing embarrassment.

Comment on Lies, Dirty Tricks and $45 Million Kill GMO Labeling in California by Dee

I have been listening to 64.0. They said that pregnant women were turning up with GMOs in their bodies, including unborn children and cancer rates are climbing very high for breast cancer due to this.

I think that if this is real information, you should tell people about it on the news and show up at functions where people meet.

People listen to things about children and babies, unfortunately they think adults are expendable! Men don’t seem to get cancer as much as women with GMO’s. So, if that is the case, you need to tell people exactly what is going on.

I also read that they put GMOs in Canola Oil and we are getting it in everything we eat from the store. Let people know about this!

Thanks

Dee

Comment on Tell Obama to Cease FDA Ties to Monsanto by Gretchen Wilson

Gretchen Wilson — Sat, 03 Nov 2012 22:22:12 +0000

Was it Congress who stopped Obama from labeling these hazard health hazards, even causing death, or was it The Elite or Global Elite. This is a horrible tragedy that happened to the American people. Monsanto has committed enough crime he should be in prison & all who helped him cover up. I hope I can get an answer. This would help Obama if the truth is told who was giving him orders.

Respectfully submitted
Gretchen Wilson

You advertise that you want children to eat healthy. Then why are you using GMOs in your products. This is not a healthy policy.

Comment on Is Whole Foods Sincere About Its Support for Labeling Genetically Modified Foods? by Maja Ramirez

Maja Ramirez — Sat, 20 Oct 2012 14:17:59 +0000

The Kingsbury Street WFM in Chicago says they stopped using Carnation malted milk powder – because I pointed out Carnations’s Third-World anti-breastfeeding slant.

We have a RIGHT to know what we are PUTTING IN OUR BODIES!

I have been spending THOUSANDS of dollars a year for the PAST 10-1/2 YEARS – since my DAUGHTER WAS BORN – at WFM, and I’m going to STOP UNLESS you THROW YOUR WEIGHT BEHIND PROP 37!!!

Genetically modified foods are an experiment. Like microwave ovens, they may prove to be safe… On the other hand no one knows if the altered genetics in soy and corn take 5, 10 or 50 years to manifest problems or harmful effects. There is simply no rational explanation for NOT clearly labeling the products that contain genetic modifications. People must be given the facts. It’s a facet of the problems caused by the process in which elected officials raise funds for election where those officials are materially influenced by vested interests. Your elected representatives are for sale. That’s the real problem. GMO foods simply MUST be labeled – it’s immoral to hide this.

Kellogg’s has a new commercial on TV saying it’s corn flakes contain only 4 ingredients – 2 of the ingredients, corn and sugar I know to be GMO, yet they say it’s all natural, but a wise consumer knows all corporate USA corn and sugar are GMOs. Who do they think they’re fooling? Sickens me every time I see this commercial. Feel sorry for the children who aren’t old enough to make wise decisions.

EDITOR’S NOTE: The following comment was traced back to a server on Kellogg Dr. in Yorba Linda.

I am sorry but your article is quite incorrect – non-GMO activists are a long way from taking over the Kellogg’s Facebook page! What they have done is to be rude and hateful to anyone else who posts there and splattered their scare-tactics and fear-mongering for all to see – very much reducing the credibility of anything they have to say.

It doesn’t surprise me that given the studies showing GMO’s cause sterility within 3 generations that Kellogg’s is involved and fighting to keep away labeling laws. Pull up the wiki on the Eugenics society in America. John Kellogg was one of the financiers of the movement. It doesn’t surprise me that his company went on to help with the depopulation effort by poisoning the food supply against the will of the people with this sterility causing garbage.

Comment on GMO Foods Unsafe for Humans by Emily

Emily — Thu, 20 Sep 2012 15:19:27 +0000

It does seem like it’s nearly impermissible these days to entirely avoid GMOs and synthetic additives. Especially if you live in a small town and your only choice for grocery shopping is a major supermarket like Ingles. I’ve decided the best way is to grow my own produce and eat only wild meat that my husband hunts in the woods where we live. But what about cheese?!?! I love cheese and it’s so hard to find organic! Maybe one day we will be able to trust our government and the labels that appear on our food ? I just stumbled upon this site through Pinterest and am so happy to discover that I am not the only one who is outraged with the fraud that is our food system, and I refuse to be a victim or allow my children to be victims! I can’t wait to dive in and read more posts!

Comment on Monsanto donates $4.2 million to defeat California GMO labeling initiative by Fahmy

The best hot chocolate mix I have found, hands down, is Penzeys Hot Chocolate Mix from Penzeys Spices. The inedtrignes are: sugar, natural cocoa, ceylon cinnamon, real vanilla beans. I realize now, after reading your post, that the sugar might possibly be GMO sugar and Penzeys does not make any claims against GMO. On the other hand, I have found all of their seasoning mixes to be fairly free of bad ingredients. This GMO battle is really making me weary. It makes it hard to find anything to eat sometimes. Most of the time, really. I am very vigilant about some things, but then sometimes I wonder how is a little GMO soy lecithin once in a while really going to hurt me or my children? *sigh* ANYWAY we have found that we love the Nourishing Traditions Raw Milk Warmer the best it is basically a hot chocolate recipe with some odd ingredients. We just use a high quality cocoa (Penzeys high fat dutch process), organic vanilla, organic maple syrup, and our raw milk plus some extra cream. Sometimes it is so rich and creamy we almost can’t finish it! But somehow we manage!

Well, if it’s organic, then USDA organic labeling rules require that the soy lecithin be listed as organic on the label (at least according to the USDA’s file which I linked to in the post). Since it isn’t listed on the label as organic soy lecithin , I’m not inclined to believe that it’s organic. Either they’re breaking the law by mislabeling the ingredients, or the person answering isn’t telling the truth. I don’t think they’re intentionally dishonest, just ignorant. I remember a few years ago when I first realized that most soy lecithin was probably GMO and that it was an ingredient in all my favorite chocolates. I called a couple of different organic chocolate companies, and only one (Rapunzel) had someone answer the phone who really knew what she was talking about. With all the others, I had to be *very* specific in my questions and talk to someone higher up in the company before I could get to truth. In most cases the truth was simple: they couldn’t tell me whether or not the soy lecithin was GMO or not because of how it’s processed. Getting conventionally-raised, non-GMO soy turned into soy lecithin is difficult because almost all non-organic soy is grouped together when sold downstream. No one separates out the non-GMO crops unless they’re a very exclusive producer marketing to a very exclusive manufacturer under a third party certification program like the Non-GMO Project (and note: Green Black’s isn’t part of that project). The only way to really ensure the soy lecithin is non-GMO is to use organic soy lecithin or a certified GMO-free soy lecithin.

Reblogged this on and commented:Everyone needs to think about where are food comes from. I know a big debate is the cost, but there is a greater cost of you and your families health! Organic should be a basic standard !! How and when did it become exceptable to put poisons in our food!

I realize Monsanto has changed it’s name possibly because of it had to try to change it’s image. How is it that no products are the same? It’s still called RoundUp, isn’t it? The harm is not only caused by RoundUp by also by other herbicides. Perhaps I should have pointed out that RoundUp is not the ONLY herbicide causing problems. It just happens to be the best-selling. I am not sure how it has saved the use of millions of gallons of insecticides? The ag company may never have made Aspartame, but it was still the company Monsanto. And there is plenty of evidence that Aspartame is harmful even if it’s approved for use (as is RoundUp).

Comment on The Truth Behind GMO Labeling, Follow the Money by Melisa

If you look at the Americans today, they are so genetically modified, a 20 year of male or female usually looks more like a giant cancer-sore on a prehistoric dinosaur. They are beastly deformed, since all they get to eat is cheap, genetic garbage.Watch the 1973 movie with Chuck Heston, Soylent Green, and you realize what the Americans and others in Europe are doing to Mankind and the Planet. That is our food now, and the movie is set to take place in the year 2023, which is only 14 years from right now. We are a little early, I guess. Beware, you have been warned.
