Before there was Monsanto with its GMOs (genetically modified organisms), there were junk food companies hard at work peddling their influence, and promoting their agendas, in Congress. Now, the Grocery Manufacturer’s Association of America (GMA), which represents the world’s largest purveyors of junk food, is working in cahoots with Monsanto to protect their obscene profits by doing everything in their power to keep labels off of GMO-contaminated foods. The GMA is pushing for a watered-down, voluntary GMO labeling law, one that would allow GMO-contaminated foods to be labeled “natural.” And it’s threatening to sue any state that passes a GMO labeling law. And its even going after the Washington State attorney general for the right to hide campaign contributions. If Monsanto is the most evil corporation in the world, the GMA is surely the Biotech Bully’s evil twin. Read the essay and watch the video: organicconsumers.org/articles/article_29171.cfm
