GMO Labeling

Dear Readers,  I do hope most of the readers that find their way to my blog has heard of GMO,  genetically modified organisms. It has been many years since we first read of it, at which time it was mainly affecting the seeds ones would plant for their gardens, and in a much larger scale, seeds the big farms plant. Now, with the new law passed this year concerning the labeling of what is in the food we buy at the stores, as I am reading every item I am shopping for, I am reading " produced with genetic engineering."  There are numerous articles on the internet that give so much information concerning this, it is scary, sickening and unacceptable!  Even before gmo, there has been the issue of the ''flavoring'' that is in most of the foods as well.  Also much information on the internet concerning this. They take blood from insects and use it for flavoring,  I kid you not!  Also, beaver anal gland secretions, check it out yourselves.  Sick, sick is the FDA, the government that ok's all this. For the good of whom?  Not the citizens.  I am in agreement with, some will say conspiracy people are crazy as they have been reporting of this for years, but I now believe them.  The US government has an agenda and it is not for the good of the American people, nor the whole world.

So,  I am working on plans for a hoop house to grow cold weather veggies this winter. Hubs and I have decided to make more changes in what we eat; re-teaching our brains and palette of what we have been taught of what is to be eaten at what time of day,  breakfast, lunch or supper and anything in between and eating out, which is coming to a hault. Growing more and more of our own food, and eat with the seasons and do without if we can not make it ourselves.  A challenge, some may say, impossible, but "All things are possible with God."  Where there's a will, there's a way.

Stop to think of how ones, anywhere in the world, ate 2-300 yrs ago.  They did not have the trillions of varieties of food we have today.  I know a trillion maybe an over kill, but mmmmm, perhaps not.  And yes, even in the 1700-1800's they were already adding sawdust to the flour they were making bread with, go read some of the history there, BUT, what is going on in our world today was not at the level it is today.  Some countries today won't even buy some of our products because THEY KNOW it has awful stuff in it.

I encourage all who read this, do your own research, read, read and read more, especially the food labels on all items you buy at the store.

In Joy
