EVERYONE has a right to know what they are eating. Monsanto doesn’t want people to know b/c if they were transparent about what their products were NO ONE would buy them. Monsanto is dispicable. They threaten the livelyhood of many small family farmers, put them out of business and sue them if they show opposition to their unlawful patent laws. What they are doing is criminal and we should all be willing to stand up to this kind of bullying and harrassment.
My company, Planet Organics (www.planetorganics.com), has been bringing organic produce –from small family farms- to the doorsteps of thousands of households over the past 15 years. We will NEVER stop protesting, fighting and voting in opposition against Monsanto. This is too important. I'm disappointed that Whole Foods would back down; they could use their super -chain store- power for good instead of caving to the evil empire of Monsanto. It’s shameful.
It’s time to get back to the basics; shop local, at Farmers Markets and from people you know and trust. If we stop supporting these large chain-stores, then there is no place for Monsanto and their GMO Franken-Foods. Bye Bye, the end of them!
I agree. All of my experiences with staff at Whole Foods have been markedly informative: They demonstrated above and beyond knowledge, awareness, and care regarding accurate representation of the source and content of their products. If (on rare occasion) they didn't know the answer to my question, they would be able to state clearly exactly which aspect of the question they did not know the answer too. This person's article is very inflammatory indeed, and although I am against Monsanto, it is going to become an ongoing problem because of Monsanto's power, and we cannot just boycott every single distributor or market that cannot withstand their torrid pressure.

The FDA needs to label GMO's: http://justlabelit.org
We have a right to know what's in our food. This is the reason, I buy from our local farmers market.
