Take Action: Stop Monsanto’s Sweet Corn

Monday, October 17th, 2011

Monsanto’s genetically engineered sweet corn may be set to hit the market this fall. Genetically engineered sweet corn, the first Monsanto crop designed to be consumed by people, is genetically engineered to produce pesticides and resist herbicides.

Bill Freese, a science policy analyst at Center for Food Safety told Fast Company “There’s a concern with these GE crops that we eat with minimal processing [like sweet corn]…we’re exposed to a lot more of whatever is in it versus a processed corn product,”  A study earlier this year found that pregnant women and their fetuses were contaminated with pesticides associated with GE food. Last year, researchers in France found that GE crops had numerous adverse health effects.

Help make sure GE Sweet Corn is not sold by signing Food & Water Watch’s petition to grocery stores. they’ll be delivering this petition to the top ten grocery store chains in the country in an attempt to stop GE Sweet Corn from reaching consumers.
