The video below contains a wealth of knowledge from Jeffrey Smith who is the founder of the Institute for Responsible Technology.  He takes us to a restaurant buffet and explains how you can try to stir clear of GMOs.  There are essentially only nine products that are GMO at this time.  Those are soy, corn, cotton, canola, sugar beets, alfalfa, zucchini, yellow squash and papaya (if grown in Hawaii or China).  However, some of those foods, especially soy and corn can show up in many different ways.  They can also show up in meat, depending on the feed the animals are given.

As he states, almost all vegetables and fruits have been genetically modified in a lab, they just haven’t yet come to market.  Let’s hope they never do.

I hope you take the time to watch this video.  It will help you understand better how to avoid the GMOs when eating out as well as what to look for when purchasing food from your local grocery store.
