by We have previously discussed engineering plants with vaccines, how meats including pork, beef and chicken, and salmon that are lab created would soon be available in every grocery store, and we knew that companies using bioengineered products were to be labeled with a mandatory compliance date of January 2022.
As of January 1, 2022, food that’s been previously known as a GMO or genetically engineered food will have a new “Bioengineered (BE)” label. If the term leaves you confused or searching your favorite online encyclopedia, you’re not alone. Critics of the new legislation are concerned that the new GMO “rebrand” may cause even more confusion and less transparency than its predecessor.
There are different ways foods can be labeled:
• Contains a Bioengineered Food Ingredient”
• A symbol in black and white or color
• An electronic (QR code) or digital link
Companies may also use terms such as “Genetically Modified Organism,” “GMO” and “Genetic Engineering” on their labels, but they must use “bioengineered food” or “contains a bioengineered food ingredient(s)” to comply with the law.
Yes, we knew all that, and most of Americans that read Independent News already knew that, but what we didn’t know was how many companies and how many food products actually used bioengineered foods.
Most also do not realize that our favorite foods, and brands, have added it on the label below the ingredients.
Now ask yourself this: If you have been eating a specific brand and product for years, the ingredients well known by you as you have been buying it forever, do you look at those ingredients every single time you purchase it?
I would bet the majority would think to themselves, no, why would we? We are about to answer that question.
CHECK ALL LABELS, EVEN BRANDS YOU HAVE BOUGHT FOR YEARS…..
Recently an ANP reader sent an email with the subject line saying “Campbell’s Soup,” and the email itself simply said “So much for Campbell’s soup,” along with an image, shown below.
Of course I had to run upstairs and start checking our cabinets. I started with Chunky, knowing it is made by Campbell, and yup, right there it was.
ANP image: Chucky Bioengineering label
Next up was “rich and hearty” Progresso, and yes, there it was.
ANP: Bisquick bioengineered ingredients
ANP: Cornbread mix bioengineered ingredient
ANP: GM Cheerios bioengineered ingredients
ANP: GM Hamburger Helper bioengineered ingredients
ANP: Scalloped potatoes Bioengineered ingredients Frankly, at this point I am scared to go through the rest of the cabinets, fridge and freezer to look for more boxed or canned bioengineered products.
Suggestion: Go through your cabinets, fridge and freezer(s), and note the items that contain bioengineered ingredients, so you can take them off the list of brands and/or products you normally purchase, if you do not want bioengineered foods and ingredients. Also, even if it is a brand/item you have gotten for years, if you want to avoid geoengineered ingredients, check all labels.
It has gotten to the point where it is harder to find foods that do not contain bioengineered ingredients than to find those with them.

QR codes used instead of package labeling MAKE IT FROM SCRATCH….
As shown in the image above, snagged from the Alliance For Science website, we see that QR codes are also used, so you won’t see “bioengineered” on the labels, you have to use your phone to scan for the information on bioengineered ingredients.
If I had to guess, I would say companies that use the QR code are counting on consumers wanting to be in and out of the store, so they won’t take the time to scan for “food information.”
It also seems prudent to know what foods in general are bioengineered the majority of the time.
The USDA has a list of bioengineered foods, generally used in the production of other consumables.
Alfalfa
Apple (ArcticTM varieties)
Canola
Corn
Cotton
Eggplant (BARI Bt Begun varieties)
Papaya (ringspot virus-resistant varieties)
Pineapple (pink flesh varieties)
Potato
That is what we will be looking for when we provide links to food products. No GMO. Those who grow their own food, if they are preppers, usually buy seeds that state clearly they are non-GMO.
If you want soup, make it from scratch rather than canned, use the vegetable soup blends that are made from NON-GMO ingredients, same goes for stews and casseroles. Want home fries or hash browns, get the potatoes slices and make it yourself. Same for fruit dishes or fruit cocktail, see if your store labels them NON-GMO or has any label, and if not, buy freeze dried fruits that say NON-GMO or doesn’t have a bioengineering label.Even websites claiming that bioengineered foods are safe to eat, also describe what they call “new ‘unexpected effects’ and health risks posed by genetic engineering,” which are as follows:• Toxicity. Genetically engineered foods are inherently unstable.• Allergic Reactions.• Antibiotic Resistance.• Immuno-suppression.• Cancer.• Loss of Nutrition.Yeah, sound safe, eh? NOT.Augason Farms Vegetable Stew Blend Certified Gluten Free

Most corn & Papaya crops in the U.S. are GMO.
Non-GMO Cereal/Snack Brands
Kashi. Kashi has 92 products that are GMO-free, from their GO Cinnamon Crisp cereal to gluten-free waffles.
