Did you know that up to 70% of packaged foods on our supermarket shelves contain genetically modified (GM) ingredients? Today, thousands of products on supermarket shelves are made with ingredients from genetically modified (also known as genetically engineered [GE]) crops. But GM foods are not labeled in the U.S., despite warnings from doctors and scientists that these foods may not be safe in the diet or the environment. So what s an American consumer to do? Go behind the label and get the facts on genetically modified foods! The True Food Shoppers Guide gives you valuable information on common GM ingredients, brands to look for and look out for and common sense tips to keep you in the know and help you find and avoid GM ingredients wherever you shop. The Center for Food Safety s True Food Shoppers Guide was compiled because you have the right to know what s in your food! We compiled the Shoppers Guide primarily from direct communications with food producers. In some cases, we received company policy statements from consumers who passed these on to us. In addition to written statements, we spoke to many company representatives to clarify or assess their position. Products on the RED list contain ingredients that come from the most common GE crops (corn, soy, canola, cotton). Companies with products on this list have confirmed that their products may have or are likely to be made with GE ingredients, or have not denied using GE foods when given the opportunity to do so. Companies on the GREEN list have made a concerted effort to avoid GE ingredients and have company policies asserting their position on avoiding GE foods. Features -Our Four Simple Tips section gives you easy ways to avoid genetically modified ingredients in any product - What s New brings you an always-updated feed of the Center for Food Safety s latest news and campaign developments on GMOs and other important food issues.

Please note that the Guide only includes a few organic brands as Certified Organic products are not allowed to be produced from gm crops.
