Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Hey Mary O Valorie just told me you told her about the FDA passing a "rule" that companies can no longer put "GMO Free" on labels anymore due to making the GMO boys look bad. This of course leaves us consumers with no recourse to choosing the right Non-GMO foods. So, c'mon - Give! ;o) Where did you hear about this??? Much love, Doc Ian "Doc" Shillington N.D.505-772-5889Dr.IanShillington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/89895_biolables05.shtml http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=organic20 & date=20021020 & query=organic+labeling+standards http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=organic02 & date=20021002 & query=organic+labeling+standards - Hey Ian..sent you links here to the FDA article and a couple of articles about the USDA organic standards. The new standards sound great but I don't trust the USDA some how and since the FDA and the USDA are different Departments altogether I am left wondering whats going on. I sent you the link to the site where you can look at the USDA Standards Documents ( some 500 pages!!) if you care to read them. I am going to , little by little. One thing I notice about the whole thing is the suppresion of the term "GMO". There seems to be some "sanitizing" goin on. The key here is possibly in the USDA's definition of "bioengineering" What do you all think?...Mary O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Thank you. Also earlier in I think November, the FDA said that food companies no longer have to tell the consumer that food is electronically pasteurized or radiation is used to kill all the unwanted ickies.
