The other option, and one which many of the large food producers in the US are doing for the products they send overseas including Kraft and Kelloggs is to NOT PUT GMOs IN THE FOODS THEY SEND OVERSEAS. That way no labeling costs and a greatly reduced demand for GMO. It’s that simple

Companies update labels all the time and they’ll have 18 months to add it.

We don’t need to sue companies to have them put calorie counts on a label and that’s required by law as well.

The companies that are against Prop 37 are the companies that make genetically engineered food. If they’re so proud of their gmos, why are they fighting labeling?

Almost 50 other countries label these foods. We have a right to know whats in our food and a right to choose what we want to feed our children. Join millions of consumers who want the right to know, Vote Yes on Prop 37!
