>> Stay away from gmo! I feel this is just a way to increase the costs with high demands. Just like the recent scare on shortage of velveeta. Anyone else notice the $2 increase after the announcement ? Now no one is buying because it's too expensive!
There will be farms popping up all over the world to cash in on the new gold !
@angiekaye: Most commercial chocolate already contains GMO beet sugar and/or GMO corn syrup and/or GMO soy lecithin and milk from cows fed GMO corn.GMO's are practically inescapable in the standard American diet (SAD). Unless you buy organic or non-GMO project certified, you can almost guarantee that any processed food and conventionally grown food has GMO's, pesticides, herbicides, or other dangerous chemicals. Ingredients that are banned in European countries are dumped into our foods here, and even sometimes promoted as being beneficial.Sadly, most of us cannot afford better or do not know better, or even uncontrollably crave the SAD way of eating.
@Mahm:
Well-said and true & most of the population is completely unaware. I can't afford to buy organic everything, but there's a couple items that I won't skimp on. For the most part, I just read labels & do my best... Simply can't avoid it all. And ofcourse, I do give into my cravings every so often
