Label GMO foods at Kroger!
Customers have a right to know what’s in the food that they’re buying, especially since GMOs are not without risk. For example, some GMOs are designed to allow for increased use of pesticides, which have been linked to serious health and environmental impacts.
Why is this important?
We have a right to know what’s in the food we buy so that we can make healthy, responsible and informed choices about what we’re eating. But most ingredient lists leave something out: whether a food includes genetically modified ingredients (GMOs).
That’s why we’re launching a campaign to show grocery chains that their customers want this information, and persuade them to follow the lead of other grocery stores like Whole Foods by adopting GMO labeling. If we can convince Kroger to label their GMO products, not only will that immediately protect our right to know, but it will also create momentum toward a statewide labeling law.
Tell Kroger to label GMOs in its store-brand products.
