Beware the companies below: Companies Fighting GMO Labeling

[Dawn Marie]

Whole Foods Hidden Camera GMO Sting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR9H7NgOLBQ

 

Beware the companies below:

They are battling your right to know what’s in your food by donating large sums of money

to fight Prop 37 (the California Right to Know Act, a.k.a. Label GMO).

 

In addition to spending millions to stop GMO labeling in California, these companies are also supporting disinformation

campaigns in which wild charges are made, such as the charge that labeling GMO will greatly increase food prices—it’s

complete nonsense, as we have previously reported.

 

We encourage you to boycott the below companies and their brands/products (you may be surprised to learn what well-known

brands belong to these massive conglomerates). We are targeting food companies that are trying to stop Prop 37 with their

donations. In many cases, these contributions are hundreds of thousands of dollars—and in some cases, over a million.

Thanks for this.

[Mary Ellen]

Thank you so very much for this information.  I did not know about the honey! I am also surprised by some of the companies listed.   Here is yet another area where we are being 'attacked'.   If there are any traditional Catholics, with the resources, who have started or if they can start their own good food companies,  that would be absolutely wonderful!

[Dawn Marie]

I had not heard of GMO's until I got this notice.  I guess GMO's when consumed by lab rats caused cancer and malformations at a rate unprecedented.

It is incredible what satan will not stoop to in order to destroy man by sin and corruption on the spiritual plain  and even using means to cause his earthly death in the temporal plain.

It's mind boggling.

[Mary Ellen]

Monsanto is the very worst, here in the Midwest.  I often go by one of their plants.  Their sign in front of their building simply says 'Imagine'.   

GMO's are the result of greed: more money to be made; products have longer shelf life.  But it creates a nightmare, not only does it cause health problems directly, it also indirectly affects farmers who are growing organic crops as it affects the pollination. 

GMO is yet another angle, tactic to break our spirits and it is yet another sign of what I call the Beast at work.   However those who have Mary, need not fear.  What a blessing we know who Mary is and if only the whole world would know Her!

 

 

[Cathleen]

Yes, thanks for this info.  I agree that it is simply mind-boggling.  The trouble is now I don't know what to buy in the store.  :-p  :-p  :-o

I had heard something about the honey before. (not being "real honey" even though labeled as such). Fortunately we have a local beekeeper whom we can buy honey from.  They said that it was a bad year for them because of the drought and even worse for farmers in the Midwest US.  Some very large producers are having to feed their bees and got no honey this year.

I agree with Mary Ellen's post.  We have to trust in Our Dear Mother to help us through this vale of tears.

[Alley]

WOW what a list!

[Daniel M]

The GMO's have Hurt our little Friends the Bees more than anyone knows.  A local apple orchard owner Here in Illinois told me that the GMO food casues big problem in hive development and in the worker bees abilities to find their ways back to hives.  The poor little guys are getting lost after loading up on GMO plants and pesticides.   The pesticides used  are causing huge problems to the wildlife and the  the soil.  The crop rotation solution to naturally nutritional soil is being devestated and sucked out of the ground by the GMOs and cannot be added back in with fertilizers.  My Sister Grows Feed cord on Her farm for Cattle in wisconsin and they lease it out to Libby Foods.  Libby has represented themselves to be Land Friendly and have been Growing 3 Cycles a year of GMO Hybyid Corn that is unedible to people.  The Corn taste like chemicals.  Its disgusting and they are feeding it to Milk cows for Deans Foods and to Wisconsin Cattle and Pigs.  The bigger problem is that the land is so depleted of natural nutrient and years of pesticide residue that it will take an unknown number of YEARS for the pesticide residues to be absorbed and allowing the feilds to grow wild for a minimum of 3 years for natural growth to reestablish a non acidic, non nitrogenic soil base.  Libby has ruined the lad over the past 7 years and its estimated they will have to rest the land for 4 years to reset the natural state and the familys natural planting cycles that were in the family for years, were given to rest the land 2/3rds a year every 7th year. This is a huge disruption of their income.  Libbys food is just a bunch of Greedy morons who are careless towards the land and think that they can slove everything by putting blinders over the eyes of the landowners with fancy chemical jargon and saying they have solutions for everything until notings growing?  How Come?  They depleted the lands natural resources and the dirt is now as valuable as sand.

[Cathleen]

Wow!  Thank you, Daniel for that sobering and sad insight.  It is worse than I thought.  :-(

Whole Foods confirms it knowingly sells products containing Monsanto's genetically modified corn: Don't ask, don't tell! Ronnie Cummins of the Organic Consumers Association has been protesting Whole Foods for several years, demanding the company label the GMOs it sells. Whole Foods management has foolishly ignored him. In fact, until recently his efforts...

Europe-wide ban on Monsanto GM corn imminent in wake of French study linking it to cancer Pending affirmation by its national health agency, France is expected to call for an official ban on Monsanto's genetically-modified (GM) corn very soon "at a European level," according to the French news source RFI. Following the...

 

First, look at normal home grown tomatoes

Now take a look at Monsanto GMO tomatoes.

Also, when rats eat GM corn, they develop horrifying tumors. Seventy percent of females die

prematurely, and virtually all of them suffer severe organ damage from consuming GMO.

These are the scientific conclusions of the first truly "long-term" study ever conducted on

GMO consumption in animals, and the findings are absolutely horrifying
