Another sign of change?
“All natural” and “made with natural ingredients” are great sounding claims plastered on all sorts of processed foods to sell products, many of them far from being ‘natural’. Well now another company is now being held accountable for its use of the word natural, and seems to be fighting for the right to continue using it despite how misleading it may be.
Heinz is being called to task over the “all natural” claim on its bottles of white vinegar. Plaintiff Debbie Banafsheha says Heinz Distilled White Vinegar can’t be considered natural at all, because it’s made with GMO corn.
There are encouraging signs that consumer activism is beginning to make a difference in the marketplace.

I too have often wondered how many of the product I see on grocery shelves which claim to have "all natural" ingredients is just that - a claim. I think that if we as consumers started suing these companies for false advertising and start hitting them in their pocketbooks, then we could see some change.

Back to basics all the way. It's so expensive, but organic and non GMO verified is the only way to go. And these corporations will only listen to the decline of their bottom line.

Not just GMO corn, but sickly WHITE (bad) corn NOT treated with lime, meaning the vitamins can't be obtained by most humans!
And if you have ASD or other issues you can bet on B deficiency turning into full blown Pellagra after too much modern corn.
If you don't believe me about Pellagra just try the Coca Cola Diet for a few weeks and tell me how your health is.
Native Americans/Mexicans knew that in order to digest corn humans had to treat it with lime.
That's why tortillas have lime in them. @@ because otherwise it would be like eating cardboard with sugar in it.
p.s. Bill Gates used to be heavily invested in Similac.
Around the time that the Big Switch from sugar to HFCS happened.
Meaning Gates double dipped by profiting off GMO corn through his other investments and profited again off of Similac with cheap GMO corn syrup in it, to the tune of over 40% corn syrup solids.
For ASD families, there should be some healthy outrage at this point.
our kids could be retarded because of these meddling "elites".
p.s. my last psych dr. was about to retire. meaning he could be honest with me.
he said many americans have a disorder recently discovered, where we have antibodies to our own folate (vit B) receptors. he was a nice man.

Grow your own. Pop a seen into the ground, regularly, appropriately and await your fruits. Upstairs? Fill a bucket with dirt, pop in seeds, does the same thing. We are all going to have accept this as our future. GMO must be stopped. The science redirected to useful projects - non profit.
When planting, be nice to the seed as you press it into the soil, after all, do you not smile when you go about your own pollinating, give it a smile too :-)
