Label GMO Foods at Safeway
Consumers have a right to make healthy, responsible, and informed choices about the food we eat. Yet it's usually impossible to know whether our food contains GMOs.
Some stores, like Whole Foods, have started labeling their GMO products. Safeway should follow their lead and start labeling store-brand products that contain GMOs.
I support GMO labels. Please label store-brand products that contain GMOs.

Why is this important?
We have a right to make healthy, responsible, and informed choices about the food we eat and our families eat. But food and biotech giants like Monsanto, Dupont, and Pepsi are spending millions to keep consumers in the dark and block GMO labeling.
GMOs aren't without risk and some are designed for increased pesticides, which have been linked to serious health and environmental effects.
We can't wait for Congress to pass a national GMO labeling law, so instead we need Safeway to take the lead and start labeling their store-brand products that contain GMOs.
