List of GMO crops

Here is a list of 8 crops that are currently Genetically Modified and on the market:

- Soy ( 94% of our soy is GM.  Soy in general is bad though.  More on that in another post.)
- Corn ( 88% of our corn is GM)
- Sugar Beets ( 95% of our sugar is from GMO sugar beets.  Buy "Cane" sugar.  It is not GM.)
- Hawaiian Papaya 
- Alfalfa
- Canola ( 90% of canola is GM.  Canola is bad as well.... Look for an upcoming post :-)
- Cotton ( 90% of cotton is GM)
- Zucchini and Yellow Summer Squash

There are lots and lots of other GM foods on their way unfortunately.  There is development going on continuously as companies in the food industry try to increase their product and lower their costs.  As of now though, just look out for these.  Keep in mind as you are avoiding these foods or trying to buy them organic... that foods not on this list are still contaminated by pesticides and herbicides.  Buying all your produce organic (USDA organic certified) is the healthiest way to go!

Also, this is just GM Crops.  Get ready for a future post on the meat industry and fish industry.  Yikes!
