treats not tricks this halloween
The world could really use more treats instead of tricks this Halloween! Would you agree?
We need to stop the GMO Halloween candy madness this year by handing out non-GMO candies. Today, we are here to help you do just that!
According to the Non-GMO Project, here are 9 GMO ingredients in Halloween candy
- Sugar (GMO sugar beets)
- High Fructose Corn Syrup (GMO corn)
- Corn starch (GMO corn)
- Soy lecithin (GMO soy)
- Soybean oil (GMO soy)
- Modified food starch (GMO corn)
- Cottonseed oil (GMO cotton)
- Canola oil (GMO rapeseed)
- “Other” ingredients: isolates, isoflavones, food starch, vegetable oil
And did you know that many candies we allow our children to consume at Halloween are banned in other countries? Take for example M&M’s. In the EU, they are made with natural colorings. “American companies are marketing safer products in Europe than they’re doing for their customers back home.”
Let’s put an end to this! Let’s vote with our dollars this Halloween by supporting the companies producing non-GMO candies!
