Small Steps: How to Spot Genetically Modified Produce
So I ran across an article that gives a simple way to see if your bananas (or any other produce item) took a trip to the lab before ending in your local grocery store. GMO food is popping up everywhere (can't wait to see what happens with the GMO salmon) especially corn, soy, and tomatoes. In order to avoid them you can check the PLU code on those annoying little stickers that come on the produce. If there are 5 digits that begin with a 9, rejoice you have bought some good SAFE organic produce! If it has 4 digits it is conventionally grown, but is not GMO. If it has 5 digits, and begins with an 8 it can join the Xmen as part of the mutant family. Stay away from it! ~Riss
