So we want to share with you some pretty surprising GMO foods that you may have never heard about.
- Number one: yellow squash. That is GMO now realize if you’re having organic yellow squash. It’s not going to be GMO.
- Number two: beets. Like the vast majority of beets especially in the u.s probably 95 percent of them are GMO and that is where we’re getting our sugar from as well. So if something says sugar on the label chances are it’s from beets and chances are it is GMO sugar.
- Number three: papaya is GMO
- Number four: eggplant is GMO unless it says non-GMO or organic.
- Number five: green zucchini is GMO right unless it says organic.
- Number six: certain apples are GMO.
- Number seven: which is most surprising. Salmon is GMO now if it says wild-caught.
Salmon is not going to be GMO. But certain farm-raised Salmon are GMO so this is just another reason why to choose organic if possible but if you don’t have organic available at least at the bare minimum do the non-GMO.
Which are surprising GMO foods that you may be eating that you may want to consider not eating.
