This is a great site created by Greenpeace Australia - check it out by clicking on the icon. The True Food Guide ranks food companies in New Zealand according to their company position on genetic engineering. The Virtual Supermarket website is a more extensive database for serious shoppers.
Companies respond to the demands of their customers.
Red companies have a policy that supports genetic engineering in the food chain or do not commit to being GE free, amber companies are actively tracing their ingredients to determine their GE status, and green companies have a GE free commitment. Greenpeace is opposed to the irreversible release of genetically engineered organisms into the environment. GE is an unpredictable and irreversible technology that is not needed and not wanted. Open days at the Rainbow Warrior will also include a display of red, amber and green products quayside, and the public are invited to send a postcard to Tegel inviting them to go GE free.
