Non-GMO Cheerios were recently unveiled with great expectation and anticipation, but the result? People did not flock to the stores. There was no increase in sales!
This does not surprise me. It is entirely consistent with the survey done by the Hawaii Rural Development Council, which found that Food Security is the most important sustainability issue in Hawaii. GMO didn’t even make the top three concerns, but came in at number five.
Hmmm.
That is because they used a bland label, Non-GMO. They needed to use a flashier label like GMO-Free. At least through this, found out Cheerios are made from oats, one of the crops that don’t have any GMO variations and no plans for needing any.
