Tell Walmart: Don't sell Monsanto's potentially toxic GMO sweet corn

Dear Friends,

 This spring, Monsanto's GMO sweet corn -- their first product for direct human consumption -- will be getting planted for the first time.

Then it will be sold, unlabeled, in a grocery store near you.

To stop it, we'll need significant opposition from food sellers to this untested, potentially toxic product. Walmart is the largest food retailer in the country, but they have no plans to reject Monsanto's GMO sweet corn.

I just signed a petition urging Walmart to take a stand for consumer safety, and reject Monsanto's GMO sweet corn before it's planted.

Mike, thanks for your activism on this. Monsanto is a power player that typically gets its way. Regardless of where people stand on GMOs, the public should at least have the option not to purchase this product, and to do that it has to be labeled. Our food choices at markets are really the only vote we get on how we want our food produced.
