GMO-free Foods: A List for Those Who Are GMO Free
Printer-friendly Version
Email this Post
GMO-free foods are tough to find or, rather, it is simply difficult to differentiate between genetically modified ingredients and natural ingredients when reading the nutrition facts. Consumers are confounded by the lack of reasonable and appropriate labeling laws for GMO foods in the United States even though the vast majority of US consumers want genetically modified foods appropriately labeled.
Rather than waylay you with information on the detriments of GMO foods or scare you into going GMO-free, this post gives you a guide to which brands of foods are GMO-free at the time of writing. Keep in mind that this list is not comprehensive.
GMO-free Brands
These brands, at the time of writing, source their ingredients from GMO-free supplies. If you’re concerned about the very real threat that genetically modified organisms pose to our food supply and ultimate health, please purchase from these companies and contact them to let them know that you support and value their decision to use non-gmo soy, corn, canola and other ingredients. Please enjoy this GMO-free food list and share it.

If you have a question about a certain product or brand that is not listed here, please call the company and ask or contact me and I’ll do the digging for you. Remember: one of the best ways to raise awareness among the food corporations is to voice your concerns directly to them and boycott companies who continue to source ingredients from genetically modified sources. If you are a food manufacturer and your products are gmo-free, please contact me about adding your company to the list.

What a great list! It’s frightening to think that it’s much shorter/easier to put together a list of companies that don’t use GMO’s than to put together a list of companies that do. Thanks for doing the leg work on this!

Julie – Tell me about it! I did all that legwork in writing the post and then I hit “publish” and the list looked a LOT shorter than I’d hoped. I’m hoping to keep it updated with continual research.
AWESOME resource! Thank you so much for posting this.

Thanks for posting this as I’m starting to freak out about GMO’s and have been wondering how to start avoiding them and working it into my budget.
Jenny,
Hope you’ll add Essential Eating to your list We have organic Sprouted 100% Whole Grain Wheat and Spelt Flours. We are GMO free!
[...] the ingredient list thoroughly – looking for 100% organic ingredients or purchasing only from companies who have made a commitment not to purchase GMO [...]
Thank you for this great list! I wonder how it is possible for some of these companies – thinking out loud here – who sell some non-organic foods to be also non-GMO? What springs to mind (and what brought me here) is Bob’s Red Mill Masa Harina, which is not organic. Perhaps I have been ignorant all along, but for many months now I have believed that any corn which is not organic is likely GMO. What do you think? I appreciate your input and hope my question was clear.

Hey Jenny,
Thanx for your great works!
We all need to connect and take a stand against gmos. If “we the people” don’t want gmos, why are they in the system? I’ll tell you why! Because “they” are “POISONING US FOR PROFIT” and “they” don’t give a —- about us or our health. This includes the government, whos’ only job is to protect and serve “we the people” not their “power and profits”!
Sorry…I just had to rant. I am sooo frustrated (to put it mildly) about gmos being intentionally put into our food system against not only our knowledge, but against our will!
We must band together and fight this attack on our most basic right…pure, healthy, chosen, foods!
Thanx for letting me rant and rave about your good works:)
Shaman Phoenix
thank you sooooooooooooooooooo much
GMO free foods are one thing, but I’m concerned about the water also. How can we find out if anything from these crops is seeping into the ground water? Is that possible? I know the pesticides do. Just wondering.
Thank you so much for publishing this list.
Who Ever made this list THANK YOU!!! 80 % of the corn grown in the US is GMO!!! 80% Dude! We must not take this as US citizens we need to fight this…. I Use to eat 100% corn scoops, so I called them to check well let me tell ya what they said ” We can’t confirm or deny about our corn” What the hell is that
Bad News Bears = GMO Corn
We must stop the monopoly of monsanto from buying all of the seeds!! This is an EARTH travesty no one owns nor can they own seeds. It is like saying a corporation can also own the Atlantic Ocean. Do all of you guys know that MONSANTO has bought over 11 thousand seeds and has patents on them. Watch The Future of Foods and become very concerned!! These guys are nutz!!!
Did you hear about the farmer in Canada that had Monsantos round up ready seeds fly onto his fields by another farmer using the Monsanto seed? Monsanto filed a lawsuit against the farmer saying that the FARMER violated the Mansanto seed patent and he had to pay the company and destroy his seed!!!!??? The Canadian whacko judge ruled in favor of Monsanto!?? This just goes to show everyone that JUDGES HAVE HIDDEN AGENDAS. $$$$! Vote out bastard hippocrate judges and put them in prison.
Leave your response!
