General Mills announces original Cheerios will now be non-GMO...........another blow to GMO!.....http://money.msn.com/business-news/article.aspx?feed=AP&date=20140102&id=17228272&ocid=ansmony11
I think they were getting a lot of customer feedback about loosing sales because of it. I plan to buy a case of non-gmo Cheerios at Costco as soon as I see it offered......just to send the message..........Yes!....Good for them. Doubt it affects sales much. They were already popular.
Love the warnings: may contain GMO and only original Cheerios will be affected.
Fuck Monsanto!........it's another victory for luddism and ignorance.
you make such a compelling and well thought out case for the elimination of Genetic Modification.Fuck Monsanto!........
I'm for cheap and tasty food that isn't covered with insect feces and bite marks.I'm for the little guy.....
no, youre agains the "big guy".I'm for the little guy.....
And to think, I pay more for Organic........I'm for cheap and tasty food that isn't covered with insect feces and bite marks.
what's to be for?no, youre agains the "big guy".
there's a difference.
u mean genetic engineering heheyou make such a compelling and well thought out case for the elimination of Genetic Modification.
Monsanto's GMO enforcement practices have been very effective in crushing any organic farmer that gets in their way.......no, youre agains the "big guy".
there's a difference.
be reasonable, joe.there is nothing wrong with a monster like monsanto loosing a bit of it's grip on the stranglehold of food production.
I would think this obvious to more intelligent folk.
everything is relative doc...the big fish in the pond we r talking about would choose 2 swallow up all they could if we allow it...its just 'good' business etc...no, youre agains the "big guy".
there's a difference.
same old story lol...be reasonable, joe.
any sane, rational person would be for a total upheaval of the food supply as we know it before all the studies are in.
only a luddite would be against putting all our eggs in one basket that we haven't fully inspected for holes yet.
serious dude.
you make such a compelling and well thought out case for the elimination of Genetic Modification.
Continued here:Fuck Monsanto! said:It's in fish and chickens and cows. It's in fluorescent light fixtures, envelopes, and forklift trucks. And if you've been drinking the water and breathing the air, it's probably in you. It's one of those versatile synthetic hydrocarbons, like plastic and DDT. This one is called polychlorinated biphenyl, or PCB for short. Because of PCB, you can't buy Coho salmón at the grocery store, and fishermen are advised not to eat it more than once a week. The success of Michigan's effort to restock the lakes with game fish is threatened. And workers in faclories here and elsewhere may be showing signs of Yusho disease-PCB poisoning. We've known PCB was harmful for 40 years, but we're just getting around to banning it. Chester Georgic, a retired operating engineer,usedto take care of a boiler-heater system for melting resins at the. Inmont Paint Corporation plant on Milford (near Livernois and Warren) in Detroit. The heater, like many others in the auto plants around the city, operated much like a home hot-water heating system-except that instead of circulating water, it circulated a clear, smooth-flowing liquid with the consistency of thin oil called Aroclor. Aroclor is the trade name that Monsanto Chemical Corporation gave to PCB, which was first produced in 1929 and found many trial applications during and after the second World War, due to its chemical and thermal stability, non-flammability, and non-conductivity. Georgic worked on the heater from May 1958 until he left work in January 1971, suffering from a back injury, a persistent skin condition, and a feeling of weakness and lethargy. His responsibilities on the job included drawing samples of Aroclor out of the system into a bucket to test the viscosity about once a month. He wore no protective mask and inhaled whatever fumes blew his way. On other occasions, when he would have to add more Aroclor to the theoretically "closed" system.
