Scary stuff. This stuff could be killing off the bees and it's effects on humans haven't been studied. As far as we know, it could be eating away at us from the inside.

Right now there is no way to tell if the food you're buying is GMO. The FDA refuses to make them lable the food. Monsanto even sued a company for advertizing "GMO free" on it's packaging.

Is there somewhere we could get a transcript of that?

Great post.

there is an 8 digit number on all foods, if it starts with 8 it has GMO if it starts with 9 its organic.

also check out the original youtube video which has some great links to get up to speed on Monsanto and GMO foods

www.youtube.com...

To the negative comments on here, this is not a professional ad, its a group of girls from all over the world who are friends on youtube that decided to make a collaboration video.

in my opinion, its great for a home made project.

Hi, "good food" fans.

__The way we do NOT eat GMOs is: we eat BIO only, almost.
And in Canada, I think/hope to be able to do it for a long time.

If it is not BIO, we try NOT to buy ! !
If we have to buy non-BIO, we check the ingredient list, and we make SURE
there is no MSG ( monosodium glutamate monosodium ) GMS.

And about the crazy Monsanto?:
You MUST know about " Round-up ready " stuff ! ! !

Round-up is a ***KILL ALL*** herbicide.
We did see it at work, on my neighbour's grass !
It got ALL yellow. Nothing **alive** was left ! ! !
He wanted to build a small shed and have NOTHING to grow under it!
Round-up made it ! !

Now, KNOW that the crazy psychopaths, in Monsanto, did create
corn, and wheat, and barley that resist to Round-up ! ! !
That is their **Round-up ready** insanity ! !

Now, the farmer has only one herbicide to use: the Round-up.

Soooooooo, that round-up is sprayed on our corn. . .etc. . .
The corn is soaked with that crap, and the corn DRINKS that crap ! ! !
And, after that, we humans EAT that corn full of Monsanto's crap POISON ! ! !

That is why we eat BIO only, 98-99% of what we buy !
We do promote a grocery store, with quite a big BIO section:
It is an IGA store ! COPY / PASTE the next:
magasin.iga.net/Default.aspx?culture_ts=633997986388303535
Check [ Organic & natural foods ] on the left ! !

And, we buy 98-99% of our stuff at a "TAU market", a 100% BIO grocery !
www.marchestau.com...

Soooooooo, eat BIO, no MSG, no Aspartame, no fluoride ! !

Blue skies.

great stuff

Alright, fair enough. For a homemade project they did pretty good. I am used to PETA videos and that's all I am going to say about that. On their video (from the youtube page) they even posted links to their information which I thought was good, because I questioned some of the statements.

You did a good job of clearing all of that up.

I do happen to have a bag of organic chips here with me, is the number around the bar code?

Yea, GMO's are indeed FrankenFoods, and we should realy say NO to that #..
When Codex is in place, which I am unsure if will come in the near future or was put off for now, the manufacturers are NOT obligated to LABEL their products, and that is going to be aproblem IMO..



Here is their YouTube channel..
SayNOtoGMO

Edit : the last video didnt work..

Yes the farmer will have to pay monsanto because a law was in place in the 90's creating the "patent to life" rights. Monsanto can sue because you now have their DNA in your crop, eventhough it was caused by "nature".

Watch the movie Food Inc and you will learn plenty. Monsanto tried to come back and say that the movie does not answer every questions but it doesn't take a rock scientist to truly understand what they're doing.

My wife is doing everything she can to:

A: not buy any GMO, rBGH milk and meat products

B; fight monsanto after she found out that they were the creators of Agent Orange (her father died because of it in 'nam)

she is repulsed by them and has written to our senator and governor and all parties involved to no longer do business with those people. they should not be allowed in our government, their practices are killing everyone.

I couldn't find the link to the verbatim opinion but Monsanto lost the suit. If Monsanto is going to be taken down, the attackers need to be scrupulously accurate about anti-Monsanto statements. The suit was not about a company advertising "GMO free". It was against Oakhurst Dairy who stated on its milk labels that its milk contained no rBGH, an artificial bovine growth hormone. That's totally different than GMO. Monsanto sued and lost. As a scientist, I am sceptical of the claims about genetically engineered foods. Man and nature have both been engineering foods for millenia. When you go to your local frmer's market, look at the "heirloom" tomatoes. And then look at the other common ones. We have been engineering the bumps and spots and weird lobes out of them by selecting which seeds get planted. With that said, I agree that Monsanto is a scourge that needs to be eliminated. Its tactics are abominable. It has lasted this long because it sells very little direct to the consumer and thereby avoids massive consumer rage. Most consumers don't care what happens to the poor farmer as long as they keep getting cheap food.

Starred and Flagged. Morningmayan is one of my favorites on youtube, she makes wonderful metaphysics videos so that we can raise our frequency and co-create eden, AND in addition she is out there doing things, like phoning the governor of Montana concerning Blackwater taking over the police force of a small town, going to the sheriff's office. We need to join her ASAP.

This is her channel:

This is the thread I started about co-creating and manifesting eden, based on her frequency course.
