Products that may contain GE soy Derivtives: vitamin E, tofu dogs, cereals, veggie burgers and sausages, tamari, soy sauce, chips, ice cream, frozen yourt, infant formula, sauces, protein powder, margarine, soy cheeses, crackers, breads, cookies, chocolates, candies, fried foods, shampoo, bubble bath, cosmetics, enriched flours and pastas. *special note: soy and corn ingredients are used in 60% of processed foods which is why its time to reexamine the foods we are all eating and question what methods were used to raise them. Corn: Corn flour, corn starch, corn oil, corn sweeteners, syrups. Products that may contain GE corn derivavtives: vitamin C, tofu dogs, chips, candies, ice cream, infant formula, salad dressings, tomato sauces, breads, cookies, cereals, baking powder, alcohol, vanilla, margaine, soy sauce, tamari, soda, fried foods, powdered sugar, enriched flours and pastas. Canola: Oil. Products that may contain GE canola derivatives: chips, salad dressings, cookies, margarine, soaps, detergents, soy cheeses, fried foods. Cotton: Oil, fabric. Products that may contain GE cotton or its derivatives: clothes, linens, chips, peanut butter, crackers, cookies. Potatoes: Products that may contain GE potatoes or derivatives: unspecified processed or restaurant potato products (fries, mashed, baked, mixes, etc.), chips, Passover products, vegetable pies, soups. Tomatoes: No plum or roma tomatoes have been genetically engineered. But one cherry tomato has, as have regular tomatoes. Products that may contain GE tomatoes or derivatives: sauces, purees, pizza, lasagna, and most Italian and Mexican foods. Dairy Products: Milk, cheese, butter, buttermilk, sour cream, yogurt, whey. You have to ask several questions when you are looking at dairy products. Have the cows been treated with rBGH? What kind of feed have they been given? If they are not being fed organic grains, chances are quite likely that they will be eating GE animal feed. What does this do to their milk products? No one knows. Animal Products: Because animal feed often contains GEOs, all animal products, or by-products, may be affected *Please note that a food may contain some of these items and yet be free from GEOs, but we have no way of knowing without tracking down every brand, every product and every ingredient. source: Genetically Engineered Foods, Are they safe?
