I was thinking we should put our heads together and compile a master list of products we’ve flagged for containing GMOs. πŸ™‚

Let's be honest, squinting at tiny fine print on labels is an absolute chore, so if we build this ourselves, we can save some precious time, protect our eyesight, and stop wasting money. Personally, I usually just toss whatever I find out laterβ€”once I realize it's full of GMOs, the whole thing just loses its appeal to me.

Here is my starting list (I'll keep adding to it as I go):

*Fruit-based probiotic culturesβ€”not the plain ones
*Processed cheese slices for toastβ€”pretty much every single one I've grabbed so far
*Pringles chips
*Heinz ketchup and mayo
*Dannon mousse and fruit yogurts
*Pretty much all those frozen microwaveable dinners
*Uncle Ben's sauces
*Canned corn
*Ben & Jerry's ice cream

Just curious, what makes you think those specific products have GMOs in them?

I'm just reading the label, which clearly states the product contains modified starch

Look, modified starch is absolutely not the same thing as GMO.

I spotted an error. πŸ˜‚
At least I learned something along the way. And yeah, I’m still sticking with Uncle Ben's sauces πŸ™‚

Mods, please move this under: "topics where we died laughing." πŸ˜‚

on topic: why isn't this modified so we can actually eat it?

If I had a full set of teeth, I would be laughing my head off at that claim.🀣

Hey, what about acetic acid? 😬
It’ll absolutely wreck your stomach lining if you eat it. πŸ˜‚
