What is a GMO?
(From Organic Consumers Assoc.)
GMOs (genetically modified organisms) are created when the genes from unrelated organisms, such as viruses and bacteria, are inserted into a plant or animal. More than 75% of all non-organic foods contain ingredients from GE (genetically engineered) crops or animals fed GE feed and given GE hormones and vaccines.
Despite growing public concern over the safety of Monsanto's Frankenfoods, the US government refuses to require safety testing or labeling for GE foods.
Monsanto's Roundup Ready corn, soy, cotton, canola, sugar beets and alfalfa are designed to withstand massive doses of weed killers. Since these crops were first introduced in the 1990's, the use of toxic pesticides has increased dramatically.
Monsanto's GE bovine growth hormone (rBGH or rBST), now owned by Eli Lilly, has come under fire from Breast Cancer Action for links between the consumption of hormone-tainted animal products and rates of breast, colon, and prostate cancer.



USDA certified organic foods are grown and processed according to federal guidelines addressing, among many factors, soil quality, animal raising practices, pest and weed control, and use of additives. Organic producers rely on natural substances and physical, mechanical, or biologically based farming methods to the fullest extent possible.As with all organic foods, none of it is grown or handled using genetically modified organisms, which the organic standards expressly prohibit. (USDA)



The Non-GMO Project is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focusing on genetically modified organisms. The organization began as an initiative of independent natural foods retailers in the U.S. and Canada, with the stated aim to label products produced in compliance with their Non-GMO Project Standard, which aims to prevent genetically modified foodstuffs from being present in retail food products.   (Wikipedia)
