HEB World Food Day Challenge
We, the undersigned, request that HEB, as our largest homegrown grocer, join the burgeoning movement to bring transparency to the food supply on which we all depend by requiring suppliers to label products containing genetically modified ingredients (GMOs), so that customers can know which products contain GMOs and can thereby make better informed consumer choices.
Why is this important?
We feel everyone has a right to know what they're eating. Given that polls show as many as 95% of the public favor this labeling, we believe that a decision by HEB to take the historic step to join this movement will benefit consumers and HEB alike, making HEB the leader among major food stores in responding to the growing demand for truth in labeling. JUST LABEL IT!
