New way to trick you into poisoning yourself just dropped.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/01/01/usda-bioengineered-food-rules/>Foods that previously were labeled as containing “genetically engineered” (GE) ingredients or “genetically modified organisms” (GMOs) will now be labeled as “bioengineered,” or come with a phone number or QR code guiding consumers to more information online.>this choice was in large measure because “GMO” had come to be perceived as pejorative.>will leave the majority of genetically modified foods unlabeled>new rules discriminate against the more than 100 million Americans who do not have access to smartphones or cell service, because companies will be allowed to rely on smartphone-based scannable QR codes to share information with consumers>“Contains bioengineered food ingredients” means that at least one ingredient in the food — the soy protein in a plant-based burger, for instance — contains DNA from a new gene.---------Holy shit. This is laughably, intentionally malicious. "Detectable", lmao.>Under the new rule, a food does not contain genetic material if the genetic material is not “detectable.” If one or more of a food’s ingredients comes from a modified plant but the ingredients themselves contain no DNA from that plant, the label may carry a “derived from bioengineering” disclosure. But that’s voluntary. So, processed foods made from genetically engineered crops — like sodas, candies and cooking oils — that are so highly processed that no DNA remains, may not be labeled.

>What will the disclosure look like on food packages?>"Food products will say “contains a bioengineered ingredient” on the package, or they will have a round green label that says “bioengineered” or “derived from bioengineering,” or a label that will list a phone number to call or text for more information, or a QR code that takes you to an online disclosure."Note - there are loopholes where they just have a QR code or phone number to find out and don't have to disclose anything on the packaging.

@scalar >“GMO” had come to be perceived as pejorative.I wonder why this would happen? Maybe using the technology to sell more chemicals and grow faster at the sacrifice of nutrients was a poor use of Gene Editing

Don't forget that Maria Farmer described Epste!n's own fridge as always being stocked with "Only Organic", despite being BFFs with Gates.>Should tell you all you need to know if they won't eat it themselves.

@scalar "People were actually paying attention to the labels and making personal choices, and we can't have that."

@scalar I was really hoping the non-gmo label would protect from roundup since non-engendered plants usually can’t handle it. What a bummer, I was still thinking they might use it as a desiccate though.
