How to Avoid the New Genetically Modified Potato

So what do you need to do to avoid these creations? In addition to never eating food from McDonald’s and avoiding potato-based foods in restaurants, there are 3 primary ways you can bypass Innate GMO potatoes:

Look For Products Labeled 100% Organic:

• United States and Canadian governments do not allow companies to label products 100% organic if they contain genetically modified foods.

Look For “Non-GM” or “GMO-Free”:

• When searching for potatoes in a health food store that supplies organic produce, just look for signs indicating that the potatoes are organic and non-GMO. Many packaged products represent the NON-GMO Project verified seal, but in this case you’ll need to look for as many indicators as possible.

Read the Labels:

• Conventional Fruit Labels: Begin with the number 4, and never begin with the number 9.

• Genetically Modified Fruit Labels: Begin with the number 8. Note that it begins with 8, not just contains the number 8. This is often a 5 digit number.

• Organic Fruit Labels: These fruit labels always contain 5 digits, and begin with the number 9. Always check and make sure, as some “organic” products have been known to be deceptively labeled.
