In the recent election, Prop 37 (California) failed to pass. Basically, it would have required all companies to disclose any GMOs in their products. This was a serious blow for those of us who need, or even want, to know what is in our food supply.
GMO corn makes me sick. I don't know why. Honestly, I haven't looked in to it much. What I do know is if I eat 100% organic corn, I'm fine. If I eat any other corn, I feel sick. I ran a blind taste test on myself to make sure. When I had corn planned, a family member picked whether it was organic or not . The can was buried in the trash, so I couldn't see it. We keep food journals to help us pinpoint reactions. Every reaction came after I ate non-organic corn.
I don't understand why people voted against the labeling. I don't understand why people don't want to know what they're eating. It doesn't make sense to me at all. Then again, I guess many people don't have to deal with food allergies/sensitivities, so they just don't think about it.
