Check All Food Labels, Even Products You Have Bought For Years! It Is Harder To Find Foods NOT Bioengineered In Grocery Stores These Days Than Foods Full Of Toxic GMOs
As of January 1, 2022, food that’s been previously known as a GMO or genetically engineered food will have a new “Bioengineered (BE)” label. If the term leaves you confused or searching your favorite online encyclopedia, you’re not alone. Critics of the new legislation are concerned that the new GMO “rebrand” may cause even more confusion and less transparency than its predecessor.
There are different ways foods can be labeled:
• Contains a Bioengineered Food Ingredient”
• A symbol in black and white or color
• An electronic (QR code) or digital link
Companies may also use terms such as "Genetically Modified Organism," "GMO" and "Genetic Engineering" on their labels, but they must use "bioengineered food" or "contains a bioengineered food ingredient(s)" to comply with the law.
Yes, we knew all that, and most of Americans that read Independent News already knew that, but what we didn't know was how many companies and how many food products actually used bioengineered foods.
Most also do not realize that our favorite foods, and brands, have added it on the label below the ingredients.
Now ask yourself this: If you have been eating a specific brand and product for years, the ingredients well known by you as you have been buying it forever, do you look at those ingredients every single time you purchase it?
I would bet the majority would think to themselves, no, why would we? We are about to answer that question.
PLEASE HELP ANP STAY ONLINE! We need to make up over $3,000 in lost ad revenue during the rest of the month of August and September to keep ANP online and a roof over our heads in October. With the globalists attacks upon independent media absolutely crushing us, unfortunately we've reached a point where it'll only be with your donations making up for that lost ad revenue that ANP will still be here in October.
CHECK ALL LABELS, EVEN BRANDS YOU HAVE BOUGHT FOR YEARS.....
Recently an ANP reader sent an email with the subject line saying "Campbell's Soup," and the email itself simply said "So much for Campbell's soup," along with an image, shown below.

Of course I had to run upstairs and start checking our cabinets. I started with Chunky, knowing it is made by Campbell, and yup, right there it was.

Next up was "rich and hearty" Progresso, and yes, there it was.

Back up the stairs I went, and started looking at boxed products, cereals, scalloped potatoes, Hamburger Helper, cornbread baking mix, Bisquick, and more, in fact almost everything I looked at, excluding Kraft products (the ingredient labels were so small I couldn't read them) had one version of the warning of bioengineered products within the food.
Frankly, at this point I am scared to go through the rest of the cabinets, fridge and freezer to look for more boxed or canned bioengineered products.
Suggestion:Go through your cabinets, fridge and freezer(s), and note the items that contain bioengineered ingredients, so you can take them off the list of brands and/or products you normally purchase, if you do not want bioengineered foods and ingredients. Also, even if it is a brand/item you have gotten for years, if you want to avoid geoengineered ingredients, check all labels.
It has gotten to the point where it is harder to find foods that do not contain bioengineered ingredients than to find those with them.
As shown in the image above, snagged from the Alliance For Science website, we see that QR codes are also used, so you won't see "bioengineered" on the labels, you have to use your phone to scan for the information on bioengineered ingredients.
If I had to guess, I would say companies that use the QR code are counting on consumers wanting to be in and out of the store, so they won't take the time to scan for "food information."
It also seems prudent to know what foods in general are bioengineered the majority of the time.
Most GMO crops are used for animal feed, according to the Food and Drug Administration. But they are also used to make ingredients that routinely find their way into human diets, such as cornstarch, corn syrup, canola oil and granulated sugar. (Source)
Going forward in our prepping pieces, when we link to consumables, we will be checking the packaging, making sure there are no bioengineered labels, symbols, or QR codes.
That is what we will be looking for when we provide links to food products. No GMO. Those who grow their own food, if they are preppers, usually buy seeds that state clearly they are non-GMO.
If you want soup, make it from scratch rather than canned, use the vegetable soup blends that are made from NON-GMO ingredients, same goes for stews and casseroles. Want home fries or hash browns, get the potatoes slices and make it yourself. Same for fruit dishes or fruit cocktail, see if your store labels them NON-GMO or has any label, and if not, buy freeze dried fruits that say NON-GMO or doesn't have a bioengineering label.
Even websites claiming that bioengineered foods are safe to eat, also describe what they call "new 'unexpected effects' and health risks posed by genetic engineering," which are as follows:
• Toxicity. Genetically engineered foods are inherently unstable.
