Re GMOs and Codex--this is pretty interesting! The US is pushing to *suppress* labeling of foods containing GMOs, while the current writing of Codex does support its labeling. Weird and depressing...
US folks may want to sign this!!

Re: (US) Want to know what's in your food?
This is not interesting--it is frightening. The EU has accepted labeling
because
that battle has been waged in European countries with a much more pro-active
public on the issue. Look at all the other health issues where those
countries
have taken a more open-minded position; ie, the banning of vaccines or the
allowing of freedom of choice for using them. And despite the battle being
waged against homeopathy in the UK, holistic healing protocols have been
much more accepted and licensed than in the USA. Of course Codex is
working to change much of that, but it is not a completed conclusion for
success.
Many developing nations at that table are opposed to the enforced use of
GMOs.
One always has to remember the real goal of the Codex. It is the complete
control of food and health by the corporations. Greed and power are the
goals and decimation of the health of the population for total control.
This
also has to be understood in light of the increasing broadcasting of the
killing
off of the human 'herd' with the total control of those let live.

Re: (US) Want to know what's in your food?
what i also should have said in my previous post is that federal and state
legislators need to be contacted as well as the fda. the fda does not
listen to the public at all. thus, legislators need to be pressured and
newly
elected officials need to be vetted for their positions on the Codex, Gmos,
protection of the DSHEA regs, etc.
