OK, here’s the cynic in me. EVERYONE would label it non-GMO, whether it was or not, if that was what the customer wanted. Why do you think the vendor at our market labeled
his unsprayed, but did not label or tell customers it was GMO? Well, not EVERYONE, probably, but a lot. Then you get into regulatory oversight, and we all know what fun that was/is with the “O” label.
Best thing – know (and trust) your farmer. Which doesn’t always work either, but it is a decent alternative for a lot of folks. Alison Wiediger, AU Naturel Farm From: market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org]
On Behalf Of maury sheets “if it is so good why don't you label it ???” Maybe we need reverse labeling. Start a movement! If everyone labels their corn that is non GMO, what is left? It is then easy for the consumer to choose. Who wouldn’t
want to label their corn “NON GMO” if it isn’t? That maybe the only way around a bad situation. The USDA sure doesn’t care. Maury Sheets Woodland Produce South jersey |
