These GMO or bioengineered foods are illegal is many countries yet we continue to sell them in the US!

[normalewis]

I don't believe a word they say. The food we eat is killing us

[duckyday]

Bioengineered means a whole lot more than GMO. Check it out people.

Thank you for all this labeling, because it has caused me to buy less and less prepackaged and processed foods, and I feel AWESOME! It has been a real eye-opener to see how much food carries this label. Grow a garden and hunt and fish, because pretty soon the whole damn food supply is going to be made of this crap.

If you read the labeling info given out to the food companies, you would know the labeling is lame, not all bioengineered foods have to be listed. Many food groups are exempt too. The new labeling is better than none, but not all inclusive.
Also, it was blatantly obvious that a lot of lobbying went into the criteria.

[jennydorrell]

Why dont the govt leave our food alone? They have messed up everything else.

[randygreen]

The food industry is using deceptive tactics? Imagine that.

[scavuman]

BioEngineering means so much more than just GMO. It is Scary and Not Necessary to Create FrankenFood in order to Control the Farm Industry while at the same time Slipping the Consumers The Mickey. Is it real meat or is it Grown in a Lab ? The name change from GMO to BioEngineering is the conditioning process towards Acceptance. This process has been used quite a lot over the past three years, and we have now come to recognize how Manipulative, and Dangerous it is. Everyone just close your eyes and swallow what we put out.

Sickening, just sickening! Will come a time when they will no longer even label things at all! Things such as gmo and crickets, what ever else they pretend is nutricious.

[sabine]

Bio engineering food should be banned completely

[kafinn]

GMO / bioengineered is banned in Europe !

[OneLaw]

Banned by other countries. Bioengineering and GMO should be banned in USA.

[robintyde]

WOW NBC has discovered Bioengineered foods! By the time mainstream media discuss anything it is far too late.

[atlsongbyrd]

I’ve been seeing those labels & I avoid all labels that say that

[lesflynn]

Look up the video of Bill Gates talking about bioengineering food to depopulate the world at the world health organization meeting !

[anthonynewman]

You better research this because it's not what their saying!! It's not safe at all!

[slimpickins]

This is how they are pedaling pedaphilia also. " It's no longer pedaphilia....it's minor attracted persons". The sorcery being used through the manipulation of words along with a certain "hype" in her voice is how they push these things over the publics head

[robinmarie]

If they say it's good don't eat it.

[margaretarross]

That label should NEVER be concealed in the "bar code". We WANT TO KNOW. And It needs to be in plain English, not computer sign.

[curiousmind]

When they say bioengineerd food. Then they do not have to list all the stuff in it!
