The documentary I just watched sure showed me why we grow our own food. I know where my food comes from. After watching this, the little "groceries" that we do buy are now in question. When we do buy groceries, we choose organic and natural. I am hoping that this means that we are not getting Genetically Modified (GM) foods. Now, I am questioning this.
We buy all natural organic peanut butter. Does this mean that my peanut butter is safe from GM practices. We don't know because in the United States, it is not required to be put on the label. In Europe, it is the law. In Europe, food companies are required to put the list of ingredients on their packaging. If any of the ingredients are GM, they are required by law to say so.
So, why doesn't the United States take up the same practice? This has been a question in my mine since watching the documentary The Future of Food on hulu.com.
It would be in everyone's best interest to watch this documentary.
This is why Living Green is best!
