There are no foods that contain corn, soy, canola, papayas, or any foods that are known to have been genetically modified that can be guaranteed NOT to contain any GMOs, not even foods labeled "100% organic" or foods on the Non-GMO Project's list of non-GMO foods. This is due to GMO varieties cross-pollinating with organically grown crops, which has resulted in the possibility, if not probability of organically grown foods having small amounts of GMOs in them. The foods on the Non-GMO Project list can actually contain up to 0.9% GMOs (as stated on the Non-GMO Project's website).

GMO stands for genetically modified organism. To confirm the GMO status of the sample, it must be labeled as GMO by the producers.

If you are a farmer, you know the corn you are gowing is GMO because you buy seeds that are known to be GMO. If you are gowing non-GMO varieties, you do not know if GMO vaieties have cross pollinated with your corn unless you get it tested.

If you are a consumer, you do not know if the corn or processed foods containing corn is GMO unless it is labeled as such. In the United States GMO foods are not labeled.

Since GMO ingredients are not labeled, it is difficult to know if the canola oil in Cape Cod potato chips is GMO. It is safe to assume the oil is GMO since most of the canola grown in the United States and Canada is GMO.

Yes and No. All of their Beer made in the USA contains GMO rice, GMO corn syrup and GMO corn. The Beers produced outside the USA do not allow GMO so if you want your Bud GMO Free, do not buy it in the USA or Canada where the governments protect Monsanto, just buy it in Belgium or Germany where they have made GMO illegal... and for good reason.

Many people try to avoid eating GMO foods, but those who still consume them for a number of reasons that may include:

  • believing that GMO foods are no different than non-GMO foods, and that they are safe
  • not being informed of the issues surrounding GMO foods
  • not realizing that at least 70% of the processed foods in grocery stores contain GMOs
  • and other reasons

Some GMO crops are genetically engineered to produce a substance that kills insects when they is eaten by them. It is for that reason that some GMO crops are classified as pesticides by the EPA.

I don't have a list yet but you can be pretty sure that snacks made with corn from the USA have GMO corn in them. I have read that about 97% of corn grown in the US is GMO. So, Cheetos, Doritos and other snacks imported from the US. You will need to discover the source of the corn which is in Philippine products such as Chippy. I read that GMO corn has been tested but I don't know if GMO corn is grown in the Philippines.

In the US GMO soybeans are also grown. So, be careful of imported soy ingredients.

Some claim science shows GMO foods are just as healthy as non-GMO foods. The FDA has declared GMO foods to be substantially equivalent to non-GMO foods. Anecdotal evidence suggests GMO foods have health issues that are unique to them. It is likely that the answer to whether GMOs are healthy is actually "We really do not know."

GMO's = Genetically Modified Organisms. Which means that in a organism the natural genetic make up is altered in a way that is not natural for the organism using genetic engineering. In the GMO's the alteration are occurred for some noble purposes like the desired product from the organism is increased or the survivability strain is increased. The GMO's goes with plant and animals also. Like the GMO eggplant which is resistant to a specific insect.

Well I have never heard of GMO products, or have a friend that uses them. But the smartest choice would to be searching up "Problems with GMO items" on google, and also "How good are GMO products.", both of these assuming google hasn't somehow gone stupid, should turn up some helpful things.

Though they should not necessarily make GMO foods illegal, the following are some of the concerns that should be addressed:

  • The possibility that growing GMO foods may cause greater weed resistance within a shorter amount of time.
  • Potential harm to soil from the greater amounts of pesticides used on GMO crops
  • Possible harm to beneficial insects from varieties that are engineered to produce a substance that kills insects
  • Greater enviromental pollution and higher amounts of pesticides on the foods that are genetically engineered
  • Cross-pollination of GMO varieties with non-GMO varieties that transfers the GMO to non-GMO and organically grown varieties.

In the United States, genetically modified foods have been declared to be "substantially equivalent" to non-GMO foods, so there are no differences in how they are grown. There are recommendations for GMO farmers to plant barriers of non-GMO crops to cut down on cross pollination of their crops with non-GMO crops, but these are just recommendations and are not enforced.
