The cost of food will go up if we label foods that contain GMO ingredients. ....
How does this statement make any sense? Companies change labels ALL the time and there are no cost changes.
I don't remember a major uprising when the FDA required foods to be labeled for trans fat in 2006.
I definitely didn't read anything about energy drinks costing more when they changed their label a few months ago to replace the word supplement with nutrition.
The same company that posted a $1.48 Billion profit this year, donated $6 million to defeat the initiative, and I am supposed to believe they are protecting the consumer from rising costs. I am quite sure they do not care about my costs. They care about their costs and how those bottom lines are affected if GMOs are labeled.
It is actually a bit maddening.
The only saving grace? My kids are learning and listening.
(I would elaborate except I cannot trust what I might say if i drifted off to
Sleep....and that is happening. )
Therefore, tomorrow's post: How I am making a difference.
