This thread will never end.
The bottom line is this....
I dont give a sheet about how many carbs are per serving size, but they label food with it, and it doesnt bother me.
So why should anyone care if someone wants GMO foods to be labeled ?
And please dont give me any sheet about the cost of labeling, brands are recreating their designs and putting "NEW FORMULA" and "NOW 10% MORE"
every other month.

Go pay 3x actual value and buy organic, don't inflict your fear based on ignorance on the rest of us. Thanks.

Go pay 1/3 the price for white bread and processed "food", even though it has no discernible nutrition. Get your kids into Oncology.

Everyone should have the right to be educated if the food is GMO or not,m and than everyone can decide if they want it or not.

Well this is only my two cents about something I know even less than that about: (LIVE AND LET LIVE) Why should folks who do not want to eat GMO be forced or tricked into eating it? A lot of times people respond to medication differently or choose different ways to heal themselves. Growing up here on the island I have seen many weird or strange techniques to try and heal or get well, (Noni and Aloe) are two of many. Sometimes the mind is stronger than the body, and you must believe what you are doing WILL work. Well if you are forced to eat GMO when you don't want to, and we are what we eat, how then do you feel about healing yourself?. Sometimes we must rid our bodies and minds from all toxins to start over with clean water and air. I don't think vegetarians feel very well about themselves after they are told they just ate meat or eggs. Well folks who don't want to pollute their bodies and minds with GMO products should be able to live that way(label it).
P.S Does GMO food require more or less spraying of toxic chemicals, fertilizers, or pesticides than organic grown?. Is there a difference in the build up of the soils, for future farming?. Some organic farming can get better and better every year with proper crops and soil conditioning, I am not sure this can be done with GMO techniques?. Just my two cents, and Opinions. Really if the world governments wants most to eat GMO, all they got to do is raise the price of Organics 10x that of GMO'S, Sue folks who grow organic and have their crops contaminated from GMO fields next door (mansanto's of the world) this is the direction I see happening.

Does everyone also have the right to know if the food was harvested on the Sabbath or not so they can choose if they want to consume that or not? Label it!!!

I always laugh at what is considered a "serving size"

pahoated, being part of the "rainbow family" does not preclude residency in Hawai'i.
I know people who have lived in Hawaiian Acres for over 30 years and they go to a lot of the rainbow gatherings.
I know people who split their time between here and the mainland, shouldn't they have a say about what goes on here?
Oneself, I had to laugh when I read that... I had a big, solid, milk chocolate Easter bunny and the servings per container was "1." It took me days to finish eating it!
This is the opposite of what one normally sees, where the serving size is ridiculously small.
