But where is one place you cannot find GMOs? Popcorn seeds because GMO popcorn doesn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n GMO, short for genetically modified organism, is used to describe plants or animals that have had genes from another organism inserted into their genetic code. Genetically modifying food can improve it by giving it a longer shelf life, an increased resistance to disease, or a better taste. Critics of genetically modified organisms try to label this engineering unnatural. However, the truth is that humans have been modifying the genetic codes of their food for hundreds of years through natural selection. And contrary to the cries of critics, there is no verified scientific evidence that genetically modified food is harmful to humans. Yet consumers continue to be wary of any food that is genetically modified. Irresponsible companies like ConAgra, which produces Orville Redenbacher popcorn, capitalize on these fears for their own profit through tactics like gratuitous labeling.<\/p>\n Orville Redenbacher falsely advertises to customers with its product labeling. \u00a0The company marks all of their popcorn kernel containers with a \u201cverified Non-GMO\u201d stamp of approval from the Non-GMO Project. \u00a0Of course, the implicit message the label sends is that other brands of popcorn kernels sell a genetically modified product. Non-genetically engineered popcorn sounds like a better and healthier option than genetically engineered popcorn, right? There is, in fact, no genetically modified alternative because there is no such thing<\/em> as genetically modified popcorn kernels. The Institute for Responsible Technology has stated emphatically that the type of seed used to produce popcorn has not been genetically modified.<\/p>\n This type of labeling ultimately hurts the customer. Orville Redenbacher deceives consumers by reassuring them that their popcorn kernels are not genetically modified, despite the fact that no popcorn on the market has been genetically modified. This may be enough for some consumers to reach for Orville Redenbacher popcorn over its more honest competitors. These customers could potentially end up paying a premium to avoid an imaginary product.<\/p>\n ConAgra, which owns Orville Redenbacher, is no stranger to deliberately misleading consumers. ConAgra justifies its non-GMO labeling on its website by stating that it is complying with Vermont\u2019s \u201cGenetically Engineered Food Labeling Act\u201d. Yet, a closer look into Vermont\u2019s law reveals that companies are only required to disclose if their food is made with genetically modified organisms. There is no requirement that states that a company must disclose the absence of GMOs.<\/p>\n Furthermore, ConAgra\u2019s stance on GMOs is precarious at best. \u00a0The company obviously believes the lack of GMOs is something notable enough to highlight on their products- then states online that food that has been genetically modified is \u201csafe and nutritious to eat\u201d. Why then, the need to point out the lack of GMOs? The only possible reason would be to benefit financially from consumers\u2019 fears of GMOs.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you, or someone you know, has purchased Orville Redenbacher because of its misleading \u201cnon-GMO\u201d label, we would like to hear from you.
