The latest on GM foods
USDA has just released the most recent statistics on use of genetically modified crops in the U.S.
This, of course, does not include sugar beets, which are also in the over 90% range.
How to interpret this? If you eat any processed foods containing corn, soybeans, or beet sugar, you should assume that they have a high probability of containing genetically modified ingredients.
