Nada. Rupert Santa isn't interested in playing any bravado Rainbowhed Raindeer games.


Also Rupert never entered the clubhouse that RH may have vacated.

I doubt if the serious-minded posters of this forum really care much about whatever it is you are on about.

Here's where the President and leader of the "anti-corporation" party stands AFTER getting in office and seeing the upside to doing business WITH the GMO folks.

You can't just go to Whole Foods and grab anything that says "natural" and you can longer trust the "party of the people" or Obama's FDA and USDA to protect us from well paying lobbyists.

For those on here that might be thinking of watching what they eat, It requires a little homework but is well worth the time and trouble.

Nice video, Tim! Thanks for contributing!! Cities are VERY capable of growing food and it could be cheaper since the transportation would be local instead of cross country.

I wonder how much food could be grown if suburbanites abandoned the Bermuda grass norm and instead grew edibles?

Enough Tricks: Consumers Speak Up Against Monsanto’s GE Sweet Corn

With the threat of genetically engineered sweet corn hitting grocery stores next year looming, 264,000 people petition top retailers and food makers

WASHINGTON - October 27 - In response to Monsanto’s release of the company’s first genetically engineered sweet corn for human consumption, a coalition has collected more than 264,000 petition signatures from consumers who refuse to purchase the corn and are asking retailers and food processors to reject it. Today the coalition, including the Center for Environmental Health, Center for Food Safety, CREDO Action, Food Democracy Now!, and Food & Water Watch, announced that they have delivered the signed petition to 10 of the top national retail grocery stores including Wal-Mart, Kroger and Safeway, and top canned and frozen corn processors including Bird’s Eye and Del Monte.

Two major national food companies, General Mills and Trader Joe's, have already indicated that they will not be using the Monsanto GE sweet corn in their products, according to replies the companies sent to a request from the Center for Environmental Health.

“The overwhelming number of people who have signed this petition once again reiterates the fact that consumers don’t want genetically engineered food on their plates,” said Wenonah Hauter, Executive Director of Food & Water Watch. “Consumers should be outraged that as early as next year, GE sweet corn in cans, frozen and fresh off the cob could show up in grocery stores across the country and we will have no way of telling it apart from other corn.”

“These grocery and food processing companies are the last link in the chain before this corn reaches consumers and they have a financial incentive to keep this unlabeled GE sweet corn off their shelves because their customers won’t buy it,” said Andrew Kimbrell, Executive Director of The Center for Food Safety. “Two major food companies have already said they will reject this risky new corn. If they can do it, so can these other companies.”
