GMO Labeling: Will Congress Keep Us in the DARK? | The Daily Sheeple

We Are What We Eat, Right? (Yes!)

Therefore, It's Imperative That We Know What We Are Eating.
(This issue is of serious/potentially life-threatening concern for those with food sensitivities/allergies)

GMO-Tainted Food Producers Don't Want Labeling Now.
(Translation: Voluntary-Labeling Is A Joke... A Bad One.)

"Polls have shown time and again that the overwhelming majority of Americans want GMO labeling on food.


Despite that, two Congressmen – who are supposed to represent the people – want to make the labeling of genetically modified foods voluntary.

Rep. Mike Pompeo (R-Kan.) and co-sponsor Rep. G.K. Butterfield (D-N.C.) introduced their deceptively-titled “Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act of 2015″ bill last week.

It would create a voluntary federal labeling standard while preventing states from passing their own mandatory labeling laws for GMO foods.

The bill has been aptly nicknamed the Denying Americans the Right-to-Know (DARK) Act by critics.

If this sounds familiar, perhaps that is because this isn’t Pompeo’s first attempt at this kind of legislation."

US Cattle Cloned From Dead Animals. Demand Clone-Free Food Labels

In light of what you are about to read...

I encourage you to actively fight for Your Right To Be Informed About What, Exactly, Is In The Food That You Are Eating.

I feel that it's imperative for all of us to demand that the FDA approve either "Cloned Food" Labels Or "Clone-Free Food" Labels.

Why?

Check This Out...

I just stumbled across what I deem to be a significantly newsworthy story:

You'll never guess what the FDA is allowing into the US Food Supply...
Without Your Knowledge or Informed Consent?

What surprised me the most about this meaty morsel is...

The fact that this is a US-based story, regarding the US Food Supply/Chain.
It's about something which effects every single American...

Yet, the first and - so far - only article covering it from a major worldwide news source/outlet comes from the U.K?

From the BBC?
(Not that I'm unappreciative. I'm very grateful to them.)

But, why wasn't the first article/report...

No, wait...
(I had to double-check.)

Why isn't there any report coming out of ABC, CBS, NBC, etc.?

Here's a "taste"...

Enjoy!

Cattle 'Cloned From Dead Animals'



"Some of the cattle cloned to boost food production in the US have been created from the cells of dead animals."

"Farmers say it is being done because it is only possible to tell that the animal's meat is of exceptionally high quality by inspecting its carcass."

"Cloning is not used by livestock farmers in Europe, and there are moves by some members of the European Parliament to ban it altogether."

"Two years ago, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ruled that meat and milk from cloned animals were safe to eat. Ever since then, products from the offspring of cloned animals have entered the food chain."
