GM Foods (Be careful of these friends
Oils, Packaged Foods and Infant Formulas below were found to be Genetially modified. They are banned in India. No ecommerce platform or store should be selling this stuff
Oils:
56 per cent (9/16) of oil samples tested were GM positive.
• Four out of seven tested canola oil (rapeseed) samples were positive. Thesewere imported from Canada (Canola, Jivo) and the UAE (Hudson, Farell).
• All five samples of cottonseed oil from India were GM positive. The brands included Tirupati, Ankur, Ginni and Vimal. The sole sample of crude cottonseed oil was also positive.
• No GM-positive packaged oil sample mentioned GM ingredients on its label.
• Samples of soya bean oil and blended oil (corn and rice bran) that were sourced from India were not found to be GM positive.
Packaged foods:
25 per cent (10/39) of packaged food samples tested GM
positive.
• About 50 per cent (10/21) of the imported samples tested were positive.
These included two ready-to-eat and eight ready-to-cook samples. Most of these positive samples were corn based.
• Nine out of 10 of these brands were imported from the US, including Kellogg’s Froot Loops cereal, American Garden popcorn, Mrs. Cubbison’s Croutons Toast Bread, Trix Corn Puffs, Mori-Nu tofu, Bugles corn snacks, and Karo, American Garden and Aunt Jemima corn-based syrups. The remaining brand from Thailand is PromPlus sweet whole kernel corn.
• The label of two out of 10 GM-positive foods had claimed no use of GM ingredients but was found to be positive (Mori-Nu tofu and PromPlus sweet whole kernel corn) and the labels of four mentioned use of GM ingredients.
• No Indian packaged food sample tested was GM positive.
Infant food:
25 per cent (2/8) samples tested were GM positive.
• Both positive samples were imported and marketed by the same company (Abbott Healthcare Pvt. Ltd). One (Similac Isomil), which is imported from the Netherlands, is a lactose-free infant milk-substitute soy infant formula.
The other (Similac Alimentum), imported from the US, is a hypoallergenic infant formula.
• No positive sample mentioned GM on its label more

The difference is that that nature does not insert spider genes into plants (for example) or anything else which is completely unnatural. We really know nothing about the effect of these genes, and it is not possible to trace what GM causes what harm. That is why we should not mess with nature. more

Without going to any comment on GM food, I can tell no one has the right to violate any Indian rule. It shows the pathetic condition of rule implementing administration. GM food may or may not create problems depend on various factors. It is not so simple. Herbicide tolerant GM food. If the plant is herbicide tolerant-mostly grown in USA and Canada, farmers applied huge quantities of herbicide to kill the weeds. Plant with herbicide is not good for health. Golden rice- pathway to produce Vitamin A precursor has been changed; it may not be harmful. However too much Vitamin A in body create problems and metabolism goes in wrong direction. more

They will escape, with the condition, that only if the % is morethan 5 , they need to mention. This condition needs to be removed more

Will somebody here explain to me, in scientific, rational and objective terms, what is wrong with GM foods. All agricultural crops are result of age-old ongoing natural process of genetic modification. For example, wheat plant used to be a grass before natural utations produced today's wheat. It can be nobody's case that what nature does is only for our good, or else we would not have all these natural calamities. Man's genetic modification on the other hand is only for our good. To me it seems only closed-mindedness to unthinkingly oppose GM foods. more

Where are the GM foods patented? What is the harm of genetic manipulations because of human interference? more
