The latest to hit the list is genetically Engineered Sugar. These new sugar beets are Roundup restistent and increase the amounts of herbicide that are sprayed each year on our food. This means that these new type of sugar beat have been genetically engineered not to die when Monsanto's Roundup herbicide applied. Roundup will normally keed anything that is green. Now we will be eating these genetically engineered ingredients in our daily food.

People need to be educated about what is happening with
today's food supply. It is becoming more and more
affected by things such as genetic modification.

I believe the future of real nutrition, will be
companies that put together nutrient dense superfoods
from as pure sources as possible.

Uri is on the cutting edge of this trend.

GENETICALLY ENGINEERED SUGAR TO HIT STORES IN 2008

American Crystal, a large Wyoming-based sugar company,
who ironically have launched an "organic" line of their
sugar,and several other leading U.S. sugar providers
have announced they will be sourcing their sugar from
genetically engineered (GE) sugar beets beginning this
year and arriving in stores in 2008.

Like GE corn and GE soy, products containing GE sugar
will not be labeled as such. Since half of the
granulated sugar in the U.S. comes from sugar beets, a
move towards biotech beets marks a dramatic alteration
of the U.S. food supply.

These sugars, along with GE corn and soy, are found in
many conventional food products, so consumers will be
exposed to genetically engineered ingredients in just
about every non-organic multiple-ingredient product
they purchase.

The GE sugar beet is designed to withstand strong doses
of Monsanto's controversial broad spectrum Roundup
herbicide.

Studies indicate farmers planting "Roundup Ready" corn
and soy spray large amounts of the herbicide,
contaminating both soil and water.

Farmers planting GE sugar beets are told they may be
able to apply the herbicide up to five times per year.

Sugar beets are grown on 1.4 million acres by 12,000
farmers in the U.S. from Oregon to Minnesota.

Meanwhile candy companies like Hershey's are urging
farmers not to plant GE sugar beets, noting that
consumer surveys suggest resistance to the product.

In addition the European Union has not approved GE
sugar beets for human consumption.
