    As a supporter of using less pesticides to grow crops, maximizing yields per acre farmed, and making crops easier for small farmers to cultivate I appreciate this list of companies that I can support.

    Awesome, thanks for posting! I was relieved to see I don't purchase any of these products anyway and I really appreciate getting to share this list with some of my more health- and environmentally-conscious friends.

    I read that a while back & was thrilled to find I no longer buy products from any brand listed. One of the perks of eliminating processed foods.

    I responded to this earlier and then looked at the list. I must say it is an impressive list but its just food companies. Cotton is a GMO. The clothes you were are a product of a GMO product. Going to boycott clothing too? Its not just Monsanto either. Look at what Pioneer or Dupont produces from a GMO product. Im sorry but I am a farmer who raises the products that makes the food you eat, clothes you wear, and the medicines you take.

    heh-heh, exactly.
    People hate change, even when it's a benefit. Stubborn ignorance.

    THANK YOU for posting this!!! I am outraged that Obama signed the GMO Bill. What a betrayal! In our family, we've already been switching over to organic, but this list makes it so much easier. Thanks!

    Yeah the healthier I eat the less I eat this stuff anyways. I see a few treats on there I occasionally buy. (V8, Healthy Choice and Hellman's for once a year homemade yum yum sauce as no good Hibachi in Phoenix!!!)
