    To the original poster -- you do understand that everything you eat has been genetically modified over the last 2000 years or so of farming and domestication don't you? Or perhaps its just "evil" corporations that you dislike.

    As you said tinfoil meet head -- head meet tinfoil.

    Sweet list! I was saddened to see ragoo and V8 on that list ( I don't personally eat them, but my son and husband do.) Oh well, time to switch brands!

    FOR THOSE WHO DON'T LIKE GMO FOOD AND THINK YOU'RE EATING & PAYING MORE FOR ORGANIC SO CALLED HEALTHY FOODS YOU MAY BE IN FOR A SURPRISE IF YOU LIVE IN THE USA!

    "Conveniently, organic food is not subject to testing or to the 0.05% rule either. While organic may not be grown with GM seeds and farmers must take steps to prevent cross pollination, there is no federal rule that organic must be GM free..

    Genetically engineered seeds are an “excluded method” for certified organic farming. However, organic foods may contain genetically engineered ingredients as long as efforts to exclude them have been made."

    Have a nice day:flowerforyou:

    Absolutely riveting! Let's avoid all of these companies and raise foods in our own gardens! Because everyone has time to do it also everyone should have adequate space. *eye roll and sigh

    Farmers are allowed to choose what they grow. Non-GMO options are readily available and grown in abundance in some areas. I'm all for free choice and consumer awareness but come on! Stop targeting Monsanto. There are many companies involved in crop seed production both GMO and otherwise. If you want to buy organic and are able to, great! However, many people cannot. Maybe we should just let them starve. Lack of research and narrow-minded ness are required to ride this bandwagon folks!

    Regardless of whether you have problems with GMO foods, Monsanto is a company with poor ethics. I shun their products where I find them for this reason only.

    Monsanto sucks! They are ruining our food supply and killing people. Small farmers are being forced out of business, those in India are drinking 'Round-Up' to have their suicides shown as a stand against Monsanto even.

    LOL...those people be dumb!

    wow, really? Those people are living in an extremely poor country trying to do their best to survive. I'm sure you know all about 3rd world problems though. Why don't you go research their plight on your Iphone.

    I'm unaware of any ethics issues with the company. If you mean they make money and are good at what they do (i.e. sell lots of products at market sustainable prices) and deliver results for consumers and investors then I again repeat my assertion -- its not Monsanto that you dislike its "evil" corporations.

    Breeding for traits is not genetically modifying a plant. Certainly not to the point that Monsanto has been doing with gene splicing. Historically, farmers kept the seeds of the plants that showed traits they were looking for, ie, frost-hardiness, insect resistance, drought-hardiness, etc. , and bred them together. Over time, (decades!) they got what they wanted. Or not. The one who tried crossing the lettuce and the radish to get a plant that had edible tops and roots comes to mind. The result was the top of a radish and the roots of the lettuce. One wonders if he knew of beets.

    Breeding is not the same as genetically modifying as we define it in GMO foods. Through breeding, one can always breed back to the original specimen. GMO foods have been altered at the genetic - DNA - level and the specimen is missing DNA or has DNA added - or both - and can never go back to the original.
