GMO's: You're Already Eating Them!

Today's Rant! By Roger Mason

You cannot avoid GMO foods. They are already ubiquitous (everywhere) in our food supply. You are already eating them everyday. They will NOT go away. Monsanto and the other food giants have made sure of that. They are too profitable to give up. There are currently over 170 million acres just in the U.S. devoted to these toxic crops. Monsanto owns many seed patents on these science fiction foods. Genetically modified foods grow faster, grow larger, and are more resistant to insects and disease. They make farmers more money. It's all about the money. The FDA said there was "no difference between these and regular crops."

You are already eating GMO foods every day. Shopping at the health food store won't help. You can't possibly even think of growing every single food you eat. The answer is in LABELING. Labeling is the ONLY answer. If we can just get labeling laws passed, we can avoid all GMO foods. Fifty countries already use GMO labels, including all of Europe. In these countries there simply are no GMO foods, because people don't want them and refuse to buy them. The U.S. government actually had to subsidize this garbage with your tax money to pawn them off on the unsuspecting. Labeling is not going to happen however. The food giants like Dean, Kelloggs, General Mills, Pepsico and all the rest have made sure they do not have to label GMO foods. The same is true of the countless fast food outlets. They don't want to label their foods either. They have all paid off everyone in Congress to insure that. If these poisons are labeled no one in their right mind will buy them.

The Peoples Republic of California is the only state so far to put this to a public referendum. The good news is that 2/3 of the voters do want all GMO foods labeled. The bad news is that 1/3 are so totally clueless and stupid they don't care. That's right, they don't care how much GMO food they eat. Incomprehensible!

Think it is going to help to buy "healthy brand names"? Think again. Kashi is owned by Kellogg, and is full of GMO foods. They deny it because they are worthless liars. Silk Soy Milk is owned by dairy giant Dean Foods. It is full of GMO soybeans. Larabars are made by General Mills and is full of GMO grains. Such famous brands as R.W. Knudsen and Cascadian Farms are full of GMO foods. All of these companies are paying off Congress to not label GMO foods. That's right, the "healthy brand" companies are our enemy. Profit is their bottom line. It will cost them to source non-GMO foods. They don't want you to know the truth.

Major chains like Whole Foods are hiding the fact they are selling GMO foods. One quarter of what they sell contains GMOs and they have been doing this for over a decade now. They do everything possible to keep you from knowing their stores are full of them. They actually instruct their employees to lie to you and say, "Whole Foods sells no GMO foods at all." Is all they have to do is tell every supplier to accurately label their foods. That's all. Just label them as to whether they have GMO foods or not. They won't do it though.

Get used to eating GMO foods because you'll be eating them the rest of your life. We do need more animal and human studies, but these take time. No person or animal should be eating FrankenFoods. These are Frankenstein science fiction genetically reprogrammed foods for profit.

If you want to know more just Google "GMO labeling" and other such terms. Google the GMO Ticking Time Bomb 15 minute youtube movie by Gary Null. Spend just 15 minutes learning the truth If you Google "dangers of GMO foods" you'll get about one million websites with endless scare stories that will make you afraid to ever eat again. We do not understand genetic engineering at all. Genetic engineering of our plant and animal food supply can only end in disaster with FrankenFoods. These are not going away. The only answer is labeling, and that's not going to happen. I hate to say this folks, but live with it. You have no choice. Do everything you can to get these science fiction nightmares labeled, but the mega-corporations have bigger wallets than us. Sign any petition you find, and support any legislation in your state for honesty in labeling.
