I just discovered this on my cereal label and decided to look my pantry food. OMG, I am trying to feed my family and now this. I am so upset to throw food away when I am struggling already to survive. I swear, they are trying to kill us!!
@@madelynfeins I am but I gave it to an old lady in my neighborhood. She's 81 so she's lived this long, she doesn't care but I will not have it in my house. Period.
This drives home the old adage "If it's got a label, you're already in trouble." Now, any food product label that contains a phone number and/or website address becomes suspect. They're painting us into a very tiny corner.
If you don't buy it and let them eat it , they won't keep making it. Make them make what we can eat, stop buying it. Your purchasing power in motion. Boycott Exxon Mobile too. INDEFINATELY. Gas costs are going up again. Don't wait till winter to consider just stopping purchasing ONE OIL COMPANIES PRODUCTS , will have them bleeding to death in 6 weeks. And will try to lower prices by tenths of a penny, because people will pick based on that tenth lower cost. Don't purchase it until they drop it to 1.50 gal. Iran is 5cents a gallon. IRAN! And we are at 5 bucks?!!!! Because you keep buying that "glitter".. stop already

Most people don’t care.Don’t read the back of labels.The government knows that unfortunately.If you don’t have a yard or some land with a little space to grow your own food.We are doomed.
So are we gently modified then. They are lying to us. Demons are running things. Here soon the will say they own us because we are genetically modified.
I used to try to avoid all the bad things years ago. Sad truth is there’s too many “cancer-causers” in our environment to try to avoid it all. Our air is dirty, but we can’t avoid it. We just have to pray and try our best to be healthy, but we can’t be afraid of everything.
If it doesn’t grow in the ground or walk on the earth then it’s easy to weed the bad things out. It’s called farm to table. I call it dirt to table. We grow our own veg and only buy meat from local farmers.

@Michael King If you eat in restaurants, and buy prepared food consisting of multiple ingredients, yes it may be difficult to look through all the ingredients and determine if any of them come from plants or animals that have had gene-splicing in any organisms in their ancestry. However if you keep your diet simple and buy mostly single-ingredient foods, and mix them together yourself, I would say it is a bit difficult, but not "very" difficult. Personally I buy rice that has been labeled as non-gmo, various vegetables labeled non-gmo, and some beans and seeds. While I prefer to eat chickpeas (garbanzod) that I have cooked myself, from non-gmo chickpeas (a single ingredient) I sometimes eat canned chick peas. ingredients: chick peas, water, salt. I buy the kind that does not have EDTA I think it's called, the kind that does not have this color-preservative added. I avoid buying prepared hummus.. Too many ingredients. I would have to check each one. Rice that has been cooked, frozen, thawed, and heated is, to me, indistinguishable in flavor texture from recently cooked rice. So I save a bit of time by cooking rice beforehand and storing it in the freezer. Then I buy fresh vegetables, sometimes frozen vegetables, and seasonings, and cook them up quickly. Most of the work involved is cutting them into small pieces that cook quickly. For example celery slice 6 ir 7 mm thick takes 5 to 7 minutes to steam. I save the water it is steamed in. It has flavor. Collards, depending on the variety, do take a long time to cook. Between 30 minutes for good home-grown cultivars, and more than an hour for some varieties. I steam them and save the water. More flavor. I buy sesame tahini made from uncooked sesame seeds, sesame seeds that have not been roasted. Garlic, small amounts of medium-heat hot pepper powder, garlic powder from non-gmo garlic grown in the US, ground cumin - such dried herbs save time. Anyway lots of the time I spend is washing and cutting vegies rather than cooking them. These days you can get pre-washed lettuce. I don't trust it, so I give it 2 more rinses before eating it. But the main job of removing the big bits of soil has already been done. So, yea, pasta sauce, I avoid prepared sauces although I do use mostly canned tomatoes. Non-gmo tomatoes. I don't trust China-grown garlic powder. I look for gp labeled product of U.S. I am careful that it does not say "packed" in the US, but rather says "product of the US." Mexico is fine too. Actually most often its better than US grown. I don't trust the rest of Latin America.
@@soilmanted Let me take it as a fact that you want to avoid any and all GMO foods and want to know what is and what isn't genetically modified. A lot of people turn to the little butterfly icon from the non-GMO project. But there are two problems with that. Problem 1 - They are stricter than many people would like. For example, they consider a meat to be genetically modified if the source animal ate GMO food. Some people consider that meat GMO and others do not. Non-GMO project may refuse the label for a food you yourself don't consider GMO. Another example is the distinction between whole food ingredients and processed food ingredients. Sugar from sugar beets is chemically identical to sugar from sugar cane - all the protein and DNA are gone. Some people (and also the non-GMO Project) consider it still GMO, and some people think it's non-GMO. Problem 2 - There are many many ingredients which cannot possible be GMO. A good example is olive oil. There are no GMO olives. But the non-GMO Project will let any olive oil producer to use the butterfly icon as long as they pay a fee. So the icon won't lie to you, but it may easily lead you to not buy a brand of olive oil you would otherwise have bought, for an invalid reason. The same problem applies to lettuce, peanuts, lots and lots of fruits, most vegetables, and so on. Incredible to me is that there are some consumers who seek out non-GMO water and non-GMO salt.
spend money on.... house filter, uv light, RO, and whole house structurer. ( water system) Then buy baby cows and a baby bull and raise them yerself. over and over. then buy a bunch a chickens and free range em. then buy a shit load of heirloom and non gmo seeds. and then buy a bunch a kick ass fruit trees and move really far away from people and city's and suburbs. work hard every day, make all your own energy because all utilities are government agencies. they have been for decades. then find an alternative way to bring income in. get ready for the end and final judgment. good by
Been finding them on many food items in my store. Hormel chili that my spouse loved has it, I showed him the label, explained the health hazards of eating this food, And he put it back, We've had to revise our entire diet, But we lost weight and feel better. I have a large garden and I'm canning all I can.
Shonna, Good observation. I have been getting food poisoning a lot more. I think it’s because of these gmos. I just started reading the labels on foods + they’re in there.
Thank you for explaining this Abbey. Several months ago I noticed "contains bioengineered ingredient" on the bread label from my supermarket (Publix) bakery. On my next trip to the store I checked more carefully and saw that ALL bakery items had this disclosure. I showed the employees in the bakery and asked what it means. They shrugged their shoulders, said they had no idea and never saw it before. Each time I go to a different Publix store I always go to the bakery, show them the disclosure on the labels and I get the same response - they have no idea what it means. Its sad that no one seems concerned or even curious about the ingredients in the products they are selling, consuming and feeding their families.
[I don't know what it means] That makes me angry. For all the years that the anti-GMO folks were trying to get GMO labeling laws passed, I kept trying to contact them and say "I respect the right of people to believe that some GMO foods are bad and should be avoided, but I object to a labeling law that doesn't give anyone the right to NOT thing that every single GMO is bad. Someone who has researched the various kinds and things that Bt crops are an environmental improvement and completely safe should be able to avoid a herbicide tolerant soybean that he/she thinks is bad and/or dangerous. But it goes in the opposite direction, too. And in case after case the GMO labeling crowd just wanted a GMO label, in large type, on the front of the package, instead of marking the ingredient on the ingredients list. They would always reply to me that it was too complicated. Bullshit. What happened to the right to know when it's for a person who has educated his or herself?
@ldwood25- To an extent we messed up. However, large farm operations would have become necessary due to population and economy of scale. It works for decades until… enter the friggin corporations with pointy headed PhD’d wonks trying to squeeze blood drops of profit from each bushel to pay for corp loans to buy said farmland. What we have today are “huge monopolies “ controlling farms. BTW, I recall when huge monopolies were “illegal.” But then time was it was illegal for a President to commit treason by taking bribes from our enemy, it was also illegal to arrest people for speaking their minds etc. But I digress…
josh, can you gave a coherent reason for that? Before I met my wife, she had her first job in a lab, testing food quality. The food started as a cow, slaughtered in Chicago, but it didn't get into the food supply without getting past her analysis. Will you now give up meat? Perhaps you already have. I don't associate laboratories with extra danger. Usually I associate them with extra care and caution. For my annual medical exam, I have a little blood drawn which is tested in a lab. I wouldn't think of wanting the test done in someone's kitchen, or in a barn.
@charlesmrader the meat made in labs is made from "invincible cells" (or something along those lines) or in other terms CANCER CELLS ... the reason they use cancer cells is because they multiply quickly so that lab grown meat can be made in masses quickly. Of course, you already know this and apparently feel comfortable with it because your wife works in a lab and says its ok😂 The ignorance is astonishing.
@@charlesmrader I’m not sure you even understand what you have written. Either way some people choose to eat real meat instead of “meat like” products full of chemicals, fats and dies that are not healthy.
Any labels that say bioengineered on any label do not eat it... I have found several products in stores today that contain this such as Nabisco products Ritz crackers & cookies, Prego pasta sauces owned by Campbell soup company, uncle Ben's rices 90 minute bags, All Belvita breakfast cookies, some cereal, bakery breads such as french breads at Krogers/Ralph's stores, there are many more read labels I will not buy any products that contain this period.
You're right Herbert, and let your grocery store managers and owners the same thing. It sneaks its way in and all of the sudden it's in our faces. Next they'll just want to feed you the bio threat vaccine.
Thank you for sharing this, I find it interesting as well that the logo of bioengineered food is quite similar to the organic food logo. Coincidence? Hmm...
If you want to be angry about something, how about the company that doesn't want to put the little "bioengineered" label on the product, which takes negligible space, but complies with the law by putting a QR code that's four or five times bigger that the "bioengineered" icon. I optimistically thought the manufacturers would use the QR code to take your smartphone to a lot of information about the product, but most of them just take your phone to a picture of the bioengineering icon, which they could have just put on the label.
I live in Australia and I recently saw a box of cereal in a discount store that stated it had bio engineered ingredients on it. It was an American brand and also had Spanish writing on it.
@chrisem70 Perhaps bioengineered sounds prettier than cloned to you, but they are 2 different things. A single plant can be neither, one or the other, or both.
bioengineered food is something that, by natural course, would never exist. It is the living hunk of man-made meat in a machine, or other products assembled from the tissues and genes of others, sliced up for our consumption. These genes and such should never enter our DNA, however it seems the powers that be have managed to find way to get this shit into our genes and seriously fuck up mankind mankind has been cloning with plants for centuries, this new laboratory created monstrosities of mix matched genes and DNA sequences are abomination
It may be like that "Engineered Salmon" that's now in the stores. I wouldn't touch that with a 10' pole! (This fake 'salmon' is really really larger than regular salmon.)
Six Potential Human Health Concerns Genetically engineered foods are different from other foods. Genetic engineering allows, for the first time, foreign genes, bacterial and viral vectors, viral promoters and antibiotic marker systems to be engineered into food. These genetic “cassettes” are new to the human diet and should be subject to extensive safety testing. Instead, in 1992 the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) ruled, without any scientific basis, that genetically engineered foods present no different risks than traditional foods. FDA’s own scientists ridiculed this unscientific agency view of genetic engineering. “What happened to the scientific elements in [the] document?,” one asked. FDA scientists consistently stated that “[t]here is a profound difference between the types of unexpected effects from traditional breeding and genetic engineering. ... [T]his difference should be and is not addressed.” What are the new “unexpected effects” and health risks posed by genetic engineering? 1. Toxicity 2. Allergic Reactions 3. Antibiotic Resistance 4. Immuno-suppression 5. Cancer 6. Loss of Nutrition
You cut and pasted that from an anti-GMO propaganda source. It matches word for word. The FDA will certainly present their own version quite differently. One left out difference is that the 1992 applied only to GMO foods which had already been shown to be substantially identical nutritionally to the unmodified form of the food. Now I know some people will see "substantially equivalent" as weasel words that can mean a lot of different things, but the showing of substantial nutritional equivalence clearly requires scientific testing. I want to be clear - I welcome any new ways to test all food for safety. Elsewhere in this comment threat I saw somebody say that he wouldn't eat any food developed in a laboratory. It would be interesting to eavesdrop on a conversation between the two of you.
I am so pleased we are living on the land growing our own veges and breeding our own beef, pork, sheep, and chickens. The Armish community have got it right
We found this crap in our foods a month and a half ago. All major brand cereals have the bioengineered clause. One of my favorite snack brands was Tastycakes from convenience stores. All have bioengineered crap in em. We have tossed a lot of food as a result. My wife is vigilant and found me cereal from a regional brand that does not contain it. We are now very selective on what we buy. We have found good food but you have to search diligently for it. I will not divulge what we do as I know all platforms are being monitored and I will not make it easy for the bastards.
Are all the shots given to our meat bio? Are grass hoppers and crickets bio. Bio means stem cells, from what. Now don't trust it, don't trust bio chemicals, or engineering, which means building, or construction, change from one thing to another. Our foods compared by Europe are stuffed with chemicals, waiting for lab eggs, egress eggs, lab chicken, lab meats, nope
You would find that most grains have been hybridized which includes most cereals, wheat, rice, flour, for example. All sugars should be avoided for a healthy diet and processed food should be addressed. Dr Mantell and Barbara O Neill have some eye opening and informative video's online which shred a more light on the subject. Natural foods in its raw state is medicine. Food is medicine and medicine is food therefore let's endeavor to seek the ingredients in the foods we are offered and sold on the shelves of the food suppliers.

A popular 'natural foods' company tried last year to tell me that their Xylitol sugar that was from corn wasn't GMO. "There's no corn DNA left in it." I told them to shove it and paid a little more for Xylitol sugar from birch trees and made in USA instead of China.
@@ogearbox6132Amazon stocks 'birch xylitol sweetener'. Search that term. Many brands do not disclose the source. If they don't, be assured it is GMO corn. Do not buy NOW Foods brand. I talked with them. It is from GMO corn but they advertise it as non-GMO as it supposedly contains no DNA that is GMO.
My mom went home from hospital to recover from illness and they sent her food to help her that was delivered by federal express. The meals were labeled BIO Engineered Meal. The entire thing. She ate it two weeks before she read the label and threw the rest of the meals away. It’s probably what they feed in Hospitals and care facilities.
We need the stores to only put brands in their stores that do not have it. So many times while in a store I will tell others that are picking out cookies or tortillas or cereal poptarts about bioengineered food and it saying it on the label and either they are stupid or don’t care, and grab it anyway! I have had gut issues so bad and I noticed most known brands have it on their label and I check all ingredients now and under the list.
@@jeanettec6212 There are loopholes in that labeling you could drive a fleet of trucks through. So not having that label does NOT mean it doesn't contain genetically modified. My best advice is only buy from trusted small ORGANIC brands.
i personally stopped eating GMO's and Bioengineered food about 3 years ago, and i have noticed that my health has improved plus i lost over a hundred lb's, now i grow and raise my own food , i'm 64 and feel like i'm 34 . Now they have come up with lab grown meat , all i can say is if you love life stay away from fast food and don't let your kids eat it .
Weeks ago I bought some cookies from my grocery store's bakery. It wasn't until my joints were aching a couple of days after I started eating them that I went to read the ingredients on the label. I saw that there was a bioengineered sugar or sweetener of some type in the cookies. I threw them out and started feeling better after a couple of days. I have had the same problem with stiff joints after eating foods with aspartame or other artificial sweeteners so I stay away from products that I know include them. I'd never had a problem with grocery store bakery cookies before but now I will be more careful.
Gosh, I'm looking in my pantry and nearly every food item, including freshly-baked bread from the Pulix grocery store chain has a line underneath the ingredients stating thay they contain bioengineered products. So thankful that the TV news media and our elected officials informed us an made it a topic of concern....NOT!!!
The main question I have is, WHY is anything related to food bioengineered? Is it so foods last longer on the shelf or are bioengineered crops more resistant to bugs or drought? Worst case scenario is there an insane cabal of wealthy individuals that want to reduce the population of the earth and/or cause disorders that motivate individuals to turn to pharmaceutical solutions making drug companies a great deal of money as in the plandemic mandates?
smsmackscott, these are good questions. First you should know that there are many different foods all gathered together under the useless term bioengineered. Bioengineered refers to a breeding technology, not to a result. So you have to consider the ingredients one at a time, and there's no easy way you can do that with the current labels. For example, some corn is bioengineered so that it produces a protein (a nutrient) that happens to kill the larvae of moths, so the plant can be grown with good yield without spraying it with chemical insecticides. You get to decide whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. Other corn has an added gene that makes the plant immune to a herbicide, so that the farmer can spray the herbicide to control weeds without worrying about it harming the corn. Again, you get to decide whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. Still other bioengineering traits protect the plant from certain diseases. I don't know whether any bioengineering affects the food shelf life. There are drought tolerant plants which result from a combination of bioengineering and other breeding techniques. I think the insane cabal theory is rather far fetched. As for reducing population, there's a much much better way to do it than killing people. If you look at population statistics for rich and poor countries, the rich countries have lower birth rates. Another factor is education of women. The better opportunities women have to become educated, the fewer children they choose to have. I also think the hypothesis about greed of pharmaceutical companies is wrong. Not because I doubt their greed. But because there are no actual cases of bioengineered foods causing health problems, and there are much easier ways to make food dangerous. Bioengineered foods must, by law everywhere, be strictly safety tested, much more than other foods, and surely the rich lobbyists from the pharmaceutical industry would have stopped those testing requirements.

I do the same thing my pantry is empty unless I cooked it the next thing is we got to find the raw ingredients that don't contain it also I've been doing that and it does exist we need to make a list for people so they can look for them to
It's all still a mystery, because I called up Hellmans and Oreo. I asked for specifically, what is the bioengineered ingredient and both said It is not for the purvue of the customer..... JUST avoid!!!!!
I bought a can of Glory Foods greens. They are so good. I got it home and for some reason I checked the can and it contained bioengineered food. I tossed it and won't buy any more of their product. You have to check EVERYTHING now. Corporations rule.
It takes me twice as long to grocery shop due to reading labels. The best thing to do is shop the perimeter. Fresh fruits and veggies, look for organic meats, frozen non gmo veggies and the fresh milks and cheeses etc. avoid all the prepackaged foods. Of course you need the staples, so just look for non gmo, gluten free and organic. There are no children’s cereal left that aren’t bioengineered, unless you get the gluten free/organic.
There are a lot of fake "organic" brands. My thought is avoid any owned by publicly traded corporations. Best to find local sources and stop buying packaged foods. Also, they keep weakening the organic requirements. And many things that are GMO are not considered bioengineered. What a joke that is. @@JHAFarm
If you buy organic meat, you should find organic milk also. Animals are eating gmo food so we must asume that crap is passing to meat and dairy anyway.
Great video with lots of information, I came about your video because I saw the word on my granola bars (that I threw away) then I saw it on my kids cereal and that made me get better informed on the subject, thank you so much for the explanation!
I'm very happy to help! I love your approach to learning more. Some people comment "well you didn't say if it was good or bad" but I think everyone needs to make their own educated decision for themselves and their family
I would have thrown it away to.........they are screwing up our food with all this lab crap...........DNA splicing and all of that.................its crazy.........
That is only true about organic, heirloom and conventional crops. GMOs are the only crops that require years of testing to get FDA approval. You are literally the guinea pig when you buy anything *other* than GMO foods. "Critics of agricultural biotechnology argue that foods whose seeds were produced using genetic engineering have never been properly tested, largely because the companies that develop GMO crops are responsible for evaluating the safety of their own products. They claim that safety studies in the United States, the world’s largest market for biotech seeds, are not required and when they are done, they are funded by the companies. This situation, critics say, presents a serious conflict of interest, because biotech companies cannot be trusted to conduct the studies objectively. Those claims are not accurate. The US approval system was set up to require companies to pay for and conduct initial safety studies. While the system is technically voluntary, no crop has ever been sold without extensive testing, which in many cases is done by independent scientists. The research protocol and data are published in peer reviewed journals and evaluated by government regulators. But approval studies represent a fraction of overall GMO safety studies. Most studies have been conducted by independent scientists who have no financial relationship with the biotech industry. Every major international science body, more than 280 organizations has reviewed multiple independent studies in coming to the consensus conclusion that GMO crops are as safe or safer than conventional or organic foods. These studies have consistently validated the results of industry safety research. Anti-GMO activists, many of them financed by organic food companies, claim that the GMO safety consensus is based on biotech industry-funded studies and thus cannot be trusted. The assertion that biotech companies do the research and the government just signs off on it is inaccurate. In practice, companies finance and execute voluntary testing, as that’s the way the US approval process was set up in the 1980s. But absolutely every biotech firm “volunteers.” That’s because the FDA can stop any GMO crop from going to market. Moreover, regulatory review by the USDA and the EPA is mandatory in every sense. This shared regulatory responsibility is divided up based on each agency’s expertise. The FDA evaluates all foods grown from genetically modified seeds to confirm they are “substantially equivalent” to their conventional counterparts, ensuring that the new foods are nontoxic and nonallergenic. The USDA evaluates GMO crops to see if they will pose a plant pest risk once released into the environment. And as a final layer of regulatory oversight, the EPA evaluates insect- and virus-resistant GMO crops, “plants that are pesticidal in nature,” the agency says, to ensure they won’t pose a threat to the environment or human health. International standards for industry-funded research are similarly rigorous. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) mandates that biotech companies demonstrate their products are substantially equivalent to foods already available in EU supermarkets, before the new items can be sold. Food safety rules established by the UN’s Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) likewise declare that studies must identify any possible allergen or toxin that may be present in GMO crop varieties before they can be commercially grown. No other foods, including organic products, intended for human consumption face such extensive safety evaluations. Furthermore, this entire process is subject to extensive peer input and criticism in the form of public comments from independent medical and scientific experts. Biotech companies are required to provide data demonstrating the safety of their products. Extensive regulatory oversight and public funding of independent GMO safety studies have prevented biotech firms from unduly influencing the research. Additionally, there is no evidence that biotechnology companies falsify their data or otherwise produce unreliable safety studies. Moreover, more than one thousand safety studies undertaken over the past 30 years were produced by independent researchers and government agencies. There are no substantial discrepancies between the safety findings of industry-funded studies and government and university-produced research.

I had a year battle with peanut m&m’s. After 4 months of eating almost a solo cup every night my skin from my back up to my neck near ear canal to my upper arms started breaking out with bumps. I ate extremely healthy during the day lotsa water, body conditioning, fresh foods but at night got into a habit of eating that?? 🤷🏽♀️. I felt fatigued , tummy would randomly get painful aches fixed with alka seltzer. I’d stop for a couple weeks & skin would start clearing up and energy levels would increase. This bioengineered is horrible for the whole body & soul in my opinion. The reverse of skin disorder is proving that bioengineered products has negative effects
Good that you discovered the problem on your own. Peanut M&Ms contain a nanoparticle known as titanium dioxide. It's a toxin and it can accumulate in your body. There are about 10,000 food products that use titanium dioxide as an ingredient -- many candies (esp those w/ color), processed cakes, cereals, etc. Do some basic research and you'll be shocked at the toxins going into foods to make them more colorful or presentable. Just make everything yourself and avoid ALL processed foods.

Nature already provides the equivalent of GMO foods through evolution: "Though much of the controversy around genetically modified crops is driven by the belief that the process of moving genes from one species to another is “unnatural,” new research shows some 1 in 20 flowering plants are naturally transgenic. Dozens of plants, including bananas, peanuts, Surinam cherries, hops, cranberries and tea, contain the Agrobacterium microbe - the very same bacterium that scientists typically use to create GM crops. The research follows on the heels of the 2015 discovery that sweet potatoes are naturally transgenic. Agrobacterium DNA also has been found in tobacco plants.The findings were reported in a paper published Sept. 21 in the journal Plant Molecular Biology. Researchers studied the genomes of some 356 dicot species and found 15 naturally occurring transgenic species. “Thus, HGT [horizontal gene transfer] from Agrobacterium to dicots is remarkably widespread,” the abstract stated. It has also been discovered that the horticultural process of grafting different plants together can lead to the exchange of genes, meaning humans have inadvertently been creating transgenic plants for millennia. From genome studies, we can see that gene swapping has been going on since the dawn of life. allianceforscience.cornell.edu/blog/2019/10/many-plants-naturally-gmo-research-finds/
Which people in a corporation are privy to the truth about food and bioengineering most likely varies greatly. Most of their employees probably believe whatever they're told and never question it.
Why do you think Bill Gates bought thousands of acres of land that has never been farmed?! They grow their food differently for the ‘elite’ than what every day people are offered in the stores.
Remember Olestrol ? Olesterol was a synthetic fat that manufactures use & still use to replace the natural occurring fat in food allowing the product to be labeled " Fat Free " making it sound better for you but it actually is worse cause it can't be broken by your body so it passes through your body an comes out the other end thick like motor oil! You'll need to get in the shower an spray it off or if you have a bidet ( Japanese toilets have them ) it'll clean it much faster. The only problem with toilet paper is its not going to get it all off your chocolate starfish its going to spread it around , use DUDE WIPES, wet wipes, it will clean it throughly if you don't have a bidet!
Yes, there's been several examples of bad food innovation. Trans fats is another one. BUT, that doesn't mean all technology regarding food is bad. Scientifically studying the food system has helped bring fresh produce to stores at the perfect ripeness, prevents massive food waste, and can even increase the digestibility and nutrition of food through processing.
Only if you are science illiterate. Educated people appreciate more accurate labels. You chose to be a breeder, your choice. Now stay in your place or go back to school.
Great information Abbey, Excellent topic,and you explained the subject matter well. i use to love Yoplait yogart, but it has bioengineered ingredients. Thanks keep up the great work.
Abbey, it's so rare to see anybody discussing this issue without veering into ideology. Thumbs up. As to why the term "bioengineered" was invented, instead of GMO, I like that because the whole available information about GMO food is so polluted with not just ideology, but outright wrongness. I mean, for example, the fish-tomato stories, the images of fruits being injected with a hypodermic syringe, etc. A consumer who looks for information about the term "bioengineereed" will start with a mentally clean page. What I really hate about the new law is that it doesn't give the consumer any idea of what ingredient triggered the label. Some people may object to genetic engineering of food for reasons which have nothing to do with food safety.
Thank you, I really tried to give the information in a neutral way so that each person can decide what's best for themselves. When I was doing research for this video, it was difficult to find details on how the legislation on BE foods came about. It's quite hard to figure out what exactly the people in the room were thinking and debating until the law was written out.
The bioengineered ingredient should be identified or there should be ways to get that information. Artificial colors/flavors are unidentifiable on the label as well but we all know they are chemicals.
@@popeyegordon The point is whether or not they are toxic. There are chemical compounds that are found naturally in plants that are poisonous. The amount/dosage ingested is also a consideration. People are suspicious of man made chemicals & have a right to know exactly which ones are contained in food. Not all, whether they be natural or man made are harmless.
@@revrotunda3206 Nobody says you have no right to know. The problem is this - If you are under 40 years old you have never seen a world free of the largest longest marketing propaganda campaign in all history. *Organic industry tyranny for 33 years and counting:* "Although GMOs are regarded as safe as their conventional counterparts by every major food safety authority in the world, the organic industry spends nearly $3 billion a year through over 330 different organizations leading with fear and “information spin” as an industry to sell their products. They also sent a $160,000 cash bribe to the IARC to buy that claim of a low cancer risk from glyphosate, it paved the way for abuse of our legal system in false cancer lawsuits. By creating an unfounded fear that requires tighter regulations on GMO crops, they are hoping to force them out of the food supply, thereby creating a bigger market share to sell more products in their more than $65 billion wheelhouse. The unfortunate consequence of these [non-GMO] labels is that the food companies and lobbyists tend to create an unnecessary “us vs. them” divide. When food companies use fear against competitors to sell a product, farmers take it personally." agdaily . com/insights/farm-babe-label-trends-end/ Now why do you suppose organic food is so expensive??

I worked at a food plant May 2021 to May 22. I dont remmebee the star bucks foods being labeled bioengineered, but ALL the 7 eleven cold food (subs, sandwiches, pizza, ect) were labeled "Contains bioengineered ingredients". So this has been going on longer than just the beginning of 2022.
Contact all the companies you buy or used to buy that use gmo and bioengineered foods... we all need to do that. Many of these companies make real food versions for countries that won't allow gmo or bioengineered food... we need to demand natural, healthy foods too. Tell them you've stopped buying their products... not buying is a good start, but letting them know you are not buying their crap and are telling everyone you know to do the same will make a big impact.
I think bioengineered ingredients always been around it’s probably just that they have to now label it - as engineered states it’s man made and our bodies are made to digest NATURAL ingredients which means I’m staying away from bioengineered food - I been seeing bioengineered food ingredients on boxes 6/10 of the time when I grab food
Sunshine_Sunday, here's some information you might not know, which devastates your comment. Almost from the beginning of the GMO food industry, it was known that some of the novel proteins produced by genetic engineering might cause allergies. This had to be prevented. There are several rules of procedure that were adapted and are required before a GMO food is approved. One of these rules is that the new proteins have to be immersed in simulated stomach acid and be able to be digested into a soup of the twenty amino acids in just minutes. The idea of this test is that rapid digestion means there is not enough time for an allergenic protein to create a problem. But never mind that. It simultaneously should reassure you that our bodies can recognize and digest the novel protein. You see, your assumption that our bodies are meant to digest natural food, which seems so plausible, is not applicable to GMO food. NATURAL has no useful reliable meaning here. I like to collect and eat wild mushrooms, which are surely natural, but there are some kinds of mushrooms, natural mushrooms, which will sicken or kill me.
Food doesn't come in a box. Be a perimeter shopper if you get your foods at stores. Buy only fresh produce (esp focus on organic) and fresh meats/fish/dairy. Eliminate any and all foods that have been processed -- this includes mayonnaise, breads, commercial cereals, etc. Get back to basics and make your own "from scratch". Frequent local shops and markets, and garden!!
My mother worked in a lab, later became Con - Agra back in the mid 50s they were commissioned by the US Gov. To start experimenting with cattle feed n bioengineered ingredients, she said some day it would be in our foods.
2017 - read ingredients on a apricot snack bar, that was with a meal from meals-on-wheels for the elderly, it had bioengineered ingredients, but not stating what ingredient(s) were bioengineered...yeah, I eighty-sixed it...
I'm suffering from severely severe indigestion right now. I bought a cheesecake from the Walmart deli. And didn't realize it was bio food. Im severely allergic to bio food I'm guessing. No more. Never again. I'll stick to beans and eggs like I normally do. And only home cooked home made from now on. I hate how America screws with our food. They ALWAYS have. 🤢🤮
No such thing as "bio food" except in the sense that all food is biological in nature. There is no GMO milk or cheese. There is no GMO sugar or flavorings. Refined sweeteners and oils are no longer called BE even when they come from GMO crops because refining makes it all the same.

I bought a jar of dry roasted peanuts from Aldi’s that said the product contained a bioengineered ingredient. Looks like this will be yet another thing to look for on the label as I’ve been seeing this more & more. But no doubt we’ve been eating it as laws don’t dictate disclosure on all foods.
It's been around for awhile it's just the government is making it display more to the public....it started in the low cost food markets that sales food item's for less than the average grocery store....fyi...dollar tree has slot of products and grapes that are sale in Walmart and other stores...fyi anything that you buy that supposed to have seeds that no longer have seeds in them anymore 🤔🤔bio.... seedless grapes, seedless oranges as such also in bakery products...
Before you unnecessarily complicate your life, try to get or deduce some more information. Maybe the dry roasted peanuts are 99.9% peanuts, which are all non-GMO and have just a trace of something else. I don't personally care to avoid GMO ingredients, but about ten years ago I remember when Post Cereals wanted to label one of its products GMO-free and they were able to achieve that by eliminating an added vitamin. Around the same time, General Mills wanted to label Cheerios GMO free. Their only GMO ingredient was corn starch, a trace amount so that the little Os wouldn't stick together, so they changed it to wheat starch. Neither starch had any DNA or protein.
This is as clear as mud. Allowing Manufacturers to provide a phone number, or a QR code as a mechanism of disclosure should be against the law. It should always be written on the package.

@@jimbojimbob6363 You are referring to the vernacular of the infamous food bully Vani Hari. *Enemies of science, also called Food Bullies are everywhere.* 'Food Babe' is the blog of activist/woo pusher Vani Hari, a professional troll who is best known for her campaign to get the chemical azodicarbonamide removed from sandwich chain bread recipe. Hari might be best considered the Mike Adams of food activism. Unlike Adams, she doesn't rely on pure hysteria; she also trades on recipes and, as the title of her blog suggests, her looks, as well as the occasional stopped clock moment. Hari is maybe not quite as dangerous as Joseph Mercola (who endorses her) or Mike Adams, but that's not exactly comforting. Her standards of evidence are based on total nonsense, and rather than promoting moderation, she mostly just wraps up obsessiveness and scolding in an apparently well-meaning package. Is she incompetent or a liar? Well, it doesn't really matter. Most of her "investigative" process can be summed up as either "Joseph Mercola said so, therefore spinning water in a blender really does make it healthier" or "if I can't pronounce it, it must cause cancer. The usual ration of nature woo nonsense. She's strongly anti-GMO, anti-vaccine, pro-organic, chemophobic, the whole works. She's a raw milk advocate and a nitrite basher. She bashes fast food so relentlessly that she clearly will eventually be caught in a compromising position with a Big Mac. She refuses to use a microwave oven because she's a fan of Masaru Emoto's water woo.[2][3] She's claimed that the pressurized cabins in airliners compress your internal organs, and that the cabin air can contain "up to 50% nitrogen."[4] (Waaay above the percentage in natural healthy ground-level air, of course.[5]) Essentially, she fancies herself a consumer advocate whose job it is to protect you from toxic food ingredients, with said toxicity determined by how scary or unfamiliar the name of the ingredient is. In reality she uses fear as a selling strategy. Her products mainly consist of items from companies she has a commission referral system in place with. Ms. Hari demonstrates little to no dignity or humility when challenged by experts. A National Public Radio (NPR) article on 4 December 2014 covered her irresponsible tactics and was scathing as it identified her as a fear-monger.[6] In response, two days later, Ms. Hari wrote an essay to portray herself as the victim of corporate shills.[7] Of course, such accusations are absurd as NPR is a public media outlet by definition. Her effort was aimed at covering up her woo, misinformation and rampant censoring on social media where most engage her with scientific inquiry. In fact, respected and well-trained scientists have already refuted many of the claims she made in her essay on victimization including, for example, the fact that she did not stay for questions in a public lecture at the University of Florida.[8] Such rebuttals include scanned copies of letters from organizers and, not surprisingly, regret that Ms. Hari was ever invited in the first place. Hari has a degree in computer science and worked as a management consultant.[9] The food thing appears to be a hobby that took off." rationalwiki.org/wiki/Food_Babe
I have seen this term everywhere, typically it’s on more processed foods that I wouldn’t eat. I have not seen the term on meat as of yet. Stay tuned! I don’t buy anything with that label. Anything that the FDA has “approved” I look at with great suspicion.
@@lezettedorval3019 Indeed I have heard of lab grown meat, as long as I continue to purchase my meat directly from my farmer I should be fine. When I do go into the city grocery store, I go into the Meat Department also and inquire about it because I want to see it. Even they have said they will not carry it in their stores.
It seems like most food in the stores have bioengineered ingredients! I bought a candy bar the other day without looking at the ingredients, and before I ate it, I noticed it was bioengineered. 😢. My craving took over, and I ate it 😮
Some are listed, some give you the toll free number, some have a QR code. All are legal ways of labeling under the new law. General Mills decided on their own to just add that to every label whether or not it contains any BE because it is insignificant to the food value and safety, it is a badge of honor that indicates the most efficient farming methods were employed. Organic is wasteful of land and resources.
@@yamine8906 This is my favorite part as a fact checker, where I get to totally devastate your nonsense: *EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT GMO LABELING IN 2021* You may recall, in 2017 the government passed a national Genetically Modified Foods (GMO) labeling law to have one uniform standard for labeling GMOs, also referred to as BE (bioengineered). Congress passed the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard in 2016. This required the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to establish a labeling standard for GM food. These requirements were originally set to take effect by July 2018. But the USDA extended the implementation two years after a public comment period. On December 20, the USDA released the official law, which they will implement at the beginning of 2020 and require food companies to comply by January 1, 2022. You can read the entire current proposal here. [hyperlinked in the article] WHAT DOES GMO LABELING MEAN FOR YOU? In the near future, you’ll start to see GMO/BE foods labeled in a variety of ways. While companies aren’t required to use the GMO label until January 1, 2022, you might start seeing the new labels sooner. Many companies have already started labeling their products and support this national labeling standard. The rule states, “bioengineered food … shall not be treated as safer than, or not as safe as, a non-bioengineered counterpart.” That’s because research has proven that bioengineered foods are safe. These new food labels are simply informative for the consumer, not indicative of safety or nutrition. WHAT WILL GMO LABELS LOOK LIKE? Once put into law, you will see three different labeling methods: Text on food packaging (example: Partially produced with genetic engineering) A symbol that represents bioengineering An electronic or digital link that can be scanned Smaller food manufacturers with limited resources may also choose to label their GM foods using a telephone number that can provide additional information or an internet URL. The law requires labeling only on bioengineered foods intended for human consumption that contain more than five percent GMO ingredients. Instances where GMOs do not have to be labeled include: Foods derived from animals, such as eggs, meat and milk Refined ingredients like oils and sugars Food served in a restaurant Foods manufactured and sold by very small manufacturers (local shops, etc.) Any non-food products While GMO labeling may be changing, the safety of our food isn’t. Just as before, food labels should guide to make the right choice for you and your family - not scare you into making a more expensive purchase. Farmers, parents and experts have shared their thoughts on GMOs and making the best choice for their family." www.watchusgrow.org/2019/01/08/everything-you-need-to-know-about-gmo-labeling-in-2019/
@@yamine8906 ---------------------------- AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH -------------------------------- Don’t buy organic food if you want to increase farm yields or seriously address climate change "As we approach the 2020s, many consumers have accepted the marketing/activist narrative that organic farming would be the best option for food safety and to mitigate the most damaging effects of climate change. The inconvenient truth is that organic farming is a terrible option from a climate change perspective. Its dependence on manures and compost involves huge, but rarely recognized, greenhouse gas emissions in the form of very potent methane and nitrous oxide. But perhaps its biggest climate change issue is that organic farms are mostly less productive per unit area than “conventionally” farmed land. With rising food demand driven mostly by rising standards of living in the developing world, there is a need to boost farm production, and that means the very undesirable conversion of forests or grasslands to agriculture in places like Brazil. That leads to major carbon dioxide release from what had been sequestered carbon in the soils, and also the loss of biodiversity and other environmental services provided by those natural lands. In 1990, the USDA (US Department of Agriculture) was charged by Congress with establishing a national organic standard to supersede the fragmented certification systems that had evolved to that time. It was a major struggle because the very science-oriented USDA was at odds with the early organic marketers who had focused entirely on the narrative that what is “natural” is always best. The marketers finally prevailed. When the national organic standards were issued in 2002, they were not based on science but rather on the naturalistic fallacy. So here is the big picture. The only crop category for which organic yields were higher than the 2016 US average was for forage crops for feeding animals. To have produced all of the US agricultural output from 2016 as organic would have required more than 100 million more acres to have been farmed-an area greater than that of the entire state of California, the third largest US state. That amount of new land suitable for farming clearly does not exist in the US, and so that shortfall would induce more conversion of forest and grassland into farming in places like Brazil, leading to major releases of previously sequestered carbon in those soils" This informative article goes on to use eleven charts and graphs from government data to prove in great detail just how inferior organic farming is. geneticliteracyproject.org/2019/10/07/viewpoint-dont-buy-organic-food-if-you-want-to-seriously-address-climate-change/

GMOs are widely considered safe by scientists, but opponents have said they want more science on the potential harm so that subjective arguments aren't part of the equation. However, previous surveys have shown that providing more scientific facts about GMOs to people doesn't change their minds.

Walmart does have non GMO and organic foods for most items if you look carefully. Unfortunately they usually cost considerably more but I'm willing to pay the cost when I can.
Every big grocery chain actually. Most of the food is tainted with this garbage, the big thing is vegetable / canola / soybean oil. It’s in about 95% of things in the grocery stores and responsible for health problems
This food is garbage with or without being engineered. Actually I wouldn't even call it food. Your health will improve 100% by eliminating it. Sick people are big money for the profiteering parasites. Good luck.
I bought an 8 pack of Slimfast Advanced Nutrition shake, Waste of Money, after taking one swallow of it I had to throw it out, it had a very strong plastic taste and it burnt my throat and caused stomach pain, never had this to happen with slimfast before. I checked the expiration date, no problem there, I then seen where it said Bioengineered Food Ingredient. Just wondering of this could be the cause?
They just keep coming up with wats to deceive and mess with our food. I just pray for God to bless the food and eat as clean as possible with the information given me; which doesn't mean anything anymore.
I take it all back to Publix and make sure they notate I refuse to buy bioengineered products. I ask them to make a section for bioengineered food so customers can avoid that section.
the only way to avoid bioengineered foods in the USA is to buy products with the Certified Non GMO icon on the label. Even items that are labelled "organic" may contain GMOs (GMO crops grown organically may be certified as organic). If you eat processed food, you're eating GM/Bioengineered food. It's very hard to find any processed food that is GMO free, including flour, pancake mix, pastas, crackers, etc... I've been eating strictly non GMO food for the past 4 years and I've noticed that if I accidentally eat something that has GMOs, my digestive tract gets really affected... indigestion, heartburn, irritable bowel type symptoms, bloated feeling... I've learned to go without most snacks, and I've also had to learn to cook/bake my own treats from scratch...its not difficult. Far less convenient, but I'd rather spend the time in my kitchen than the doctor's office and hospital, facing the myriad of health issues and diseases these GMO foods cause.
Replying to add, since I began eating "real, clean food" not only do I feel much healthier, but I'm not hungry all the time and I'm no longer overweight! Nor do I need to diet or watch my weight anymore 😊
