Eat Genetically Modified Foods
In the wake of a 12-year
battle to keep Monsanto's Genetically Engineered (GE) crops from contaminating
the nation's 25,000 organic farms and ranches, America's organic consumers and
producers are facing betrayal.
A self-appointed cabal of the Organic Elite, spearheaded by Whole Foods Market, Organic Valley, and Stonyfield Farm, has decided it's time to surrender to Monsanto. Top executives from these companies have publicly admitted that they no longer oppose the mass commercialization of GE crops, such as Monsanto's controversial Roundup Ready alfalfa, and are prepared to sit down and cut a deal for "coexistence" with Monsanto and USDA biotech cheerleader Tom Vilsack.
In a cleverly worded, but profoundly misleading email sent to its customers last week, Whole Foods Market, while proclaiming their support for organics and "seed purity," gave the green light to USDA bureaucrats to approve the "conditional deregulation" of Monsanto's genetically engineered, herbicide-resistant alfalfa.

I know these are some of your favorites and I bet you did not know and cannot understand why some are using GMO products but they are. And even worse you do not know what component is modified so you are at their mercy. But you do not have to be. If you do not use their products at all you may reduce your risk and concern about their ingredients. This is call to action for all of us to help protect our food supply from the GMO fat cats who are making tons of money by producing products that are modified so that they are resistant to:
- Pesticides
- Insects
- Animals
Ask yourself this, Do I want to eat a product that a bug or other mammals programmed to specifically target a food refuses to eat? Think about it for a minute a bug has the common sense not to eat it but we do every day. It will take more than writing and talking about it to stop the deluge of GMO products from being produced. When you look at the list above it seems the only way to stop them is to use your Purchasing Power to send the message.
So Get Up Get Moving and Share this list with your friends and family and encourage them to boycott these products cause...
