GMO Labelling Boycott List

With the defeat of Proposition 37, which would have required the labelling of GMO's on packaging in California, a full fledged boycott is raging. The boycott is against the companies that donated huge amounts of money to defeat it. They are huge companies that sell food containing GMO's and some were the creators of GMO's themselves. Like Monsanto. There were lies and misrepresentations of facts, figures, costs and most or all of the 'experts' they put on the air, were not experts at all.

There were a couple of dozen companies that make the list, but the number of their subsidiaries is staggering. For example, Kashi Cereal was not on the list, but their parent company Kellogg donated to the NO side. It may take you a while to run out of products already in your cupboard, but that is a great time to look for alternate products. You will probably notice that almost all of these companies sell products that are prepackaged and/or junk food.

I am listing the major donors, the parent companies first. Following them will be the subsidiaries and other companies that prove to be donors. Especially organic and natural food traitors. This list will be updated as more information pours in.
