Re: GMO Labeling in Hawai'i
The latest issue of Consumer Report had this to say about GMO labeling.
The labeling of genetically modified food is a hot topic. More than a million people signed a petition presented to the Food and Drug Administration asking for such foods to be labeled. California's Proposition 37, which would have required GMO labels, was defeated in November after the chemical industry and agribusiness poured $45 million into fighting it. (matapule and uaifi voted in favor of Prop 37) Consumers Union, which supported the bill and others at the federal and state levels, believes that consumers have the right to know what's in their food.
