Guest guest Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 Hi Doc and all, After re-reading Doc's article about soy in the files, which I had forgotten about, I thought I would do some research about the common organic soy products here in Australia. Organic here means it must me GM free, and consumers in Australia (as apparently in Europe also) are very concerned about GM products. Not that that means the big guys wont try to rip us off or hoodwink us. It particularly concerned me that GM and GM free foods may be processed in the same machinery. I found this website. Sanitarium has a pretty good name. What do you think? I mean, they seem to make the claim the beans are clearly separated (fine print further down the page). http://www.sanitarium.com.au/products/dairy-alt/organics.html Thats just one. I have just emailed VitaSoy to see if their non GE organic soy ever comes in contact with any GM soy, such as being processed in the same factory, or stored nearby. There are directories here in Australia directing people to GM free products. You have piqued my curiosity as to how bad this gets, and if its as bad here in Australia as perhaps over there. Actually, I don't tend to drink soy milk anyway, but thats as far as my research has gone today. What do you think? Do you think they might still be covering things up? This is not covering the health benefits or not of soy, but I have been curious about this issue for a while. Peela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
