Unveiling the Dangers of GMO foods and Toxic Food Dyes
    All my life (until now) I have been eating packages of yellow cheese puffs. I love the damned things, the cheesy taste and all. Absentmindedly I recently put on my reading glasses and looked again at the pretty pictures of the cheesy things displayed on the package. I noticed one of the ingredients was yellow dye #6, what the hell, I thought? I always believed they were yellow colored because of the cheese on them. But no...they are dyed yellow. Now my detectives mind went into action, I discovered there are other dyes, including blue #1, blue #2, green #3, red #3, red #40, yellow #5, yellow #6 and citrus red #2. Worse yet, the cheesy things were cooked in corn oil, a GMO poison created by the Monsanto company.

 Common appearance of yellow Dye # 6, used in Kraft Macaroni and Cheese...

                Let us take a look at the FDA approved food dyes first:
Blue # 1. This dye is thought to cause kidney tumors in mice. You consume it in candy, cereal, deserts & beverages, like soft drinks. (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

Blue # 2. This dye is known to cause “statistically significant incidence of tumor” particularly brain tumors in rats. You consume it in candies, colored beverages, like sodas, and it is in your pets hard and soft food. (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

Citrus red # 2. This dye is used to “paint” oranges to make them look orange. Have you noticed how all the oranges in the grocery store are exactly the same range of the color orange, with little variation? (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

Green # 3. This dye causes tumors in the bladders and the testes of male rats. You consume it in candies, beverages, ice cream, sorbet, ingested drugs, and rub it on you in externally applied cosmetics like lipstick and other cosmetics. (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

Red # 3. The FDA reports this dye as a thyroid carcinogen in animals and is banned in cosmetics, however you still consume it in sausage casings, baked goods, candies and maraschino cherries (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

Red # 40. This dye causes allergy-like reactions and may cause hyperactivity in children. You consume it in cereal, candies, beverages, bakery goods and desert powders (jello). Red # 40 comes from the Cochineal insect, a termite looking creature, grown on cactus and harvested after they are killed with heat before being dried and crushed. (Yes, crushed bug juice in your red food and lipstick!) (http://www.businessinsider.com/how-cochineal-insects-color-your-food-and-drinks-2012-3?op=1)

Yellow # 5. Often causes severe hypersensitivity reactions and hyperactivity reactions and other behavioral effects in children. You and your children consume it in candies, cereals, baked goods and many other products such as kids favorite mac and cheese. It is also in your pets food and cosmetics that you put on your skin. (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

Yellow # 6. This dye has caused tumors in animals and causes hypersensitivity in children. You eat it in cereal, candies, deserts, sausage, and good old mac and cheese again. You also absorb it into your skin, via cosmetics. In the UK it has a warning label that says: “may have an adverse effect on activity and inattention in children.” (http://www.neacupuncture.com/2010/12/food-dyes-more-than-a-rainbow-of-colors-a-rainbow-of-health-risks-including-adhd/)

It is obvious that candy, so loved by children, is really the prime delivery system for toxic food dyes the way cigarettes are merely a nicotine delivery system, for those who are addicted to smoking. 15 million pounds of dye a year is poured into our food without a warning label of any kind, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest. (CSPI) Parents should think twice about giving their children rainbow colored cereal and blue juice, and don't forget my former favorite, yellow dyed cheese puffs. Perhaps your main consideration should be what are these dyes doing to your children's health as well as your own?
    
So will eating one more cheese puff or brightly colored piece of candy kill me, you might ask?
    No, not right away anyhow. But one must consider the tipping point due to accumulative effect of years of consumption of these toxic food dyes, many of which are banned in other countries due to their danger to the healthy development of young children. Why are these dangerous dyes banned in other countries and then allowed in America, supposedly the best country in the world.
    Remember the old Arab proverb about the “straw that broke the camel's back?” The tale involves a poor camel loaded beyond his ability to stand upright. It's about how cataclysmic failure, in the case of the camel, a broken back, is caused by a seemingly inconsequential addition of a single straw, or in your case, a severe health problem for your children or yourself by eating just one more package of cheese puffs? Could it be your “last straw?”
    Now look at the genetically modified organism foods, GMO's:
    The giant chemical companies, DuPont, Dow, Bayer, but chiefly Monsanto are the for profit companies who have been introducing genetically modified organism's into our food supply, since the early 1990's. With corn, (corn oil) soy beans, canola, (canola oil) cotton, (cotton seed oil) most Americans don't realize that up to 75% of their daily food intake has been corrupted by GMO foods and toxic food dyes. These Genetically modified organisms are really genes from other species like spiders, beetles, and other insects, including other plant genes that have been genetically inserted within the corn, soy and wheat to make it more hardy and able to survive natural parasites and other risks. (http://blogcritics.org/implanted-spider-genes-let-goats-produce/)
    So, we are consuming these genes into our systems that would never exist in food anywhere in nature. There has been NO long-term research to prove, empirically, that there is no damage, long term to consuming these organisms that are not found in our natural food sources and never have been. In fact what research has been done indicates that consumption of these foods is extremely detrimental to our health. What is this doing to our human gene structures? In what way are these foreign genes wreaking havoc on our naturally occurring genes? Its something to think about. (http://www.ucsusa.org/food_and_agriculture/our-failing-food-system/genetic-engineering/risks-of-genetic-engineering.html)
    Our beef, pork and chicken are corrupted by the Monsanto developed Recumbent Bovine Growth Hormone (rBGH), in addition to their eating GMO grain, such as soy, wheat and corn. rBGH is marketed to farmers under the trade name Poslac. The reasoning is that this substance makes cows produce more milk, and more body mass, in a shorter period of time. (http://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancercauses/othercarcinogens/athome/recombinant-bovine-growth-hormone)
    In short our grain products and our meat products have been adulterated without public consent, awareness or informed labeling of the presence GMO's and rGBH! For myself I feel that if a bug eats a kernel of GMO corn, gets sick and dies, should I eat it? No, not me and not my family! Apparently President Obama feels the same way. His family doesn't dine on GMO. The Clinton's didn't dine on GMO when they occupied the white house. Both George HW Bush and George Bush number two didn't dine on GMO either, yet they all pushed for GMO's for the rest of us. The common man, the little people. (http://www.seattleorganicrestaurants.com/vegan-whole-foods/gmo-hypocrisy-double-standards/)


    According to Walter Schieb, executive White House chef during the Clinton and Bush years, “The Clinton and Bush families dined regularly on organic foods. Both wagyu and grass-fed beef were frequently used. The ethic of the purchasing and the cooking at the White House under my direction and under the continuing direction of {current Obama White House executive chef} Cris Comerford is one of respect for the pedigree of the product, the manner in which it is grown, raised or caught.This meant nearly all the product used was obtained from local growers and suppliers. There was a small garden on the roof of the White House where produce was grown.”


One of several White House Organic Gardens maintained and protected
by White House staff...

    These folks are both elitist and hypocrites of the worst cloth. Other world leaders refuse to eat GMO as well. For instance China's top brass is fed by an exclusive, gated organic garden with high fences and armed guards. They eat the safest of food, organic produce, grass-fed beef from Inner Mongolia, rice free of chemicals while the food supply of ordinary citizens is laden with pesticides, industrial chemicals and GMO's. (http://www.naturalnews.com/037466_GM_food_global_elite_organic_gardens.html)

    Possibly the worst hypocrites are Monsanto employees themselves who in their canteens decided to “remove, as far as practicable, GM soya and maize from all food products served in our restaurant. We have taken the above steps to ensure that you, the (Monsanto) customer, can feel confident in the food we serve.” According to Mr. Tony Coombes, the Monsanto spokesperson, “Yes, this is the case and it is because we believe in choice.” (http://monsantoblog.com/2012/02/10/whats-served-in-monsantos-cafeterias/)

    Yes, choice for them but no choice for the rest of us!

    Are the GMO products and food dyes poisoning us?

    In a recent study by Cornucopia Institute of Research, the following information was reported: “The experience of actual GM-fed experimental animals is scary. When GM soy was fed to female rats, most of their babies died within three weeks—compared to a 10% death rate among the control group fed natural soy. The GM-fed babies were also smaller, and later had problems getting pregnant. When male rats were fed GM soy, their testicles actually changed color—from the normal pink to dark blue. Mice fed GM soy had altered young sperm. Even the embryos of GM fed parent mice had significant changes in their DNA. Mice fed GM corn in an Austrian government study had fewer babies, which were also smaller than normal. Reproductive problems also plagued livestock. In the US population, the incidence of low birth weight babies, infertility, and infant mortality are all escalating..." Reported May 20,2009. (http://www.responsibletechnology.org/doctors-warn)

    As a result of this research "the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) called on 'Physicians to educate their patients, the medical community, and the public to avoid GM (genetically modified) foods when possible and provide educational materials concerning GM foods and health risks.' They called for a moratorium on GM foods, long-term independent studies, and labeling. AAEM’s position paper stated, 'Several animal studies indicate serious health risks associated with GM food,' including infertility, immune problems, accelerated aging, insulin regulation, and changes in major organs and the gastrointestinal system. They conclude, “There is more than a casual association between GM foods and adverse health effects. There is causation,'as defined by recognized scientific criteria. 'The strength of association and consistency between GM foods and disease is confirmed!”(http://www.responsibletechnology.org/doctors-warn)

    Holy shit! Does that mean what I think it means? “The strength of association and consistency between GM foods and disease is confirmed.” Of course our presidents won't eat it, the stuff is poison! This is an out-and-out indictment of the GMO-Franken-science-foods and the shadow government that wants to impose it upon us. (GMO-Franken-science-foods is one word now.) So now I have to ask the question is Monsanto a defacto government agency? How do Monsanto employees wind up in government and how did they get there? Let's take a look.

    A rational person would now have to conclude that Monsanto is definitely a defacto government agency, and again I have to ask is what we see a grand conspiracy to kill us all off, to depopulate the world? Let's look.
    No less a personage than the hypocrite-in-chief George H.W. Bush in a speech to a joint session of congress talked about a “world in which there is the very real prospect of a new world order.” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byxeOG_pZ1o)
    I listened to that very speech and I can remember thinking at the time, “Yeah, doesn't this sound great? A respect for diversity and difference, "freedom" and "world peace" but I recall thinking, a new world order with whom in charge? You George?” And just how would you control the world with this “new world order?” Would it be by spreading American imperialism or starting another war? Or secretly spreading disease? Or would this "new world order" begin by controlling the food supply? Would it be by making our food poison to eat? Would it be by slowly making us all sick? All in the name of charity and of making more, bigger, better, stronger grain supplies?
    Doctors are concerned about the rise in autism, obesity, diabetes, asthma, cancer, heart disease, allergies, andreproductive problems, not to mention hyperactivity in children, cognitive delay, and other forms of learning difficulties. In 1992, many reports indicated that autism affected about 1 in 155 children. Now in 2013, autism effects 1 in 88 children. How can this be explained, other than what has already been determined? Which is the link between genetically modified organisms and health deterioration?  (http://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2012/p0329_autism_disorder.html)
Since the large scale introduction of GM crops in 1996, “the incidence of people with three or more chronic diseases nearly doubled, from 7% to 13%. (Jeffrey Smith, author of "The Seeds of Deception" published November 20, 2008, and founder of the Institute for Responsible Technology. If you see a conspiracy in these collective actions by the elite to “depopulate” the world by poisoning us, it is a wildly successful tactic, "because most Americans are unaware that up to 75% of their daily diet is comprised of GMO corrupted food!" (http://www.infowars.com/agenda-21-for-dummies-new-world-order-depopulation-exposed/)
                                                                ********
    I am reminded of an old radio show called “The Shadow.” The tag line was,”Who knows what evil lurks in the minds of men? The Shadow knows.” Consider this next bit of blatantly outrageous Franken-science courtesy of the shadow government which you believe to be looking out for all your best interests.
    The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) co-owns a patent along with Monsanto on a gene that will destroy food. Seeds have been modified to “commit suicide” after one season and will not germinate if planted again. This “Terminator Gene,” destroys food and can be used as a bio-weapon.
    Just think about the very word, “bio-weapon.” It means that our Monsanto-government will sell the world seeds of destruction. They will grow one crop and one crop only. Then you must buy more seeds from our Monsanto-government. And, here is the really evil sinister part, if our Monsanto-government decides not to sell you anymore seeds your alternative is to starve! Who needs an Atomic bomb when you own Terminator Genes and terminator seeds?
    The elites have decided that the ideal world population is about two billion people. The world is now approaching eight billion. That means the elite thinks there are six billion people too many. The two billion figure was reached in 1930, so how do we “depopulate,” a world of six billion people? Kill off six billion by using Bio Weapons?
The Rockefeller Foundation (with their limitless money) are funding work on anti-fertility vaccines, especially in third-world (poor people) countries. This is a means of stopping poor women from having babies. Certainly one way to “depopulate” the world of today. (http://www.infowars.com/food-and-depopulation-monsantos-monopoly/)
    President Obama appointed John Holdren to the position of Science Czar. This madman, the person in control of science policy in the United States, said in his book, Eco-science: "Forced abortions and mass sterilization are needed to save the planet." For whom, the wealthy, educated elite or everyone? He envisioned a “Planetary Regime,” (new world order) in which: (http://zombietime.com/john_holdren/)
Women could be forced to abort their pregnancies, whether they wanted to or not.
(http://zombietime.com/john_holdren/)
The population at large could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into the nations drinking water (flouride) or food. (GMO's.)
(http://zombietime.com/john_holdren/)
Teen mothers and single mothers should have their babies seized from them against their will and given away to others to raise.
(http://zombietime.com/john_holdren/)
People that contribute to “social detererioration,” (undesirables) “can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility.” (compelled abortions and sterilization.)
(http://zombietime.com/john_holdren/)
A transnational “Planetary Regime” should assume control of the global economy, (“new world order” again) and dictate the most intimate details of Americans' lives, using an armed international police force.
(http://zombietime.com/john_holdren/)
    Are you scared yet? I sure am and mad as hell too because I hate hypocrisy and I hate being lied to. President Obama and his predecessors seem hell-bent on promulgating this health and economic disaster on lesser human kind, that is, the undesirables, the uneducated, the poor, the minorities and as Henry Kissinger described them...the “useless eaters.” (http://wesmantoddshaw.hubpages.com/hub/Henry-Kissinger-Architect-Of-The-New-World-Order)
    So are we doomed? Have the collectively re-incarnated Hitlers succeeded? No! Bad karma has a way of returning and kicking them in the ass just as it did to the original Adolph Hitler. In the vernacular of the street, “what goes around comes around.” The “new world order,” has proven impossible to implement, because other countries won't be subjugated with our Monsanto-government chemicals and growth hormones! (http://www.corpwatch.org/article.php?id=2788).
    Monsanto's Recumbent Bovine Growth Hormone,  rBGH, (used for making meat leaner) marketed under the brand name Posilac, has been banned in Canada and 27 other nations of the European Union, (EU) as well as Japan, Australia and New Zealand and now no self respecting dairy will allow it to contaminate their milk, advertising “our milk is rBST free.” Pow! Take that Monsanto!
    Eli Lilly invented Ractopamine which “promotes leanness in animals raised for meat.” Beef, chicken and pork were banned in China after 1700 people became sick after eating Ractopamine infected pigs in 2002. Russia has banned US meat infected with Ractopamine, as well as 160 other countries. Wham! Take that Eli Lilly! Remember the Bush family are Eli Lilly stock holders. (http://www.bubblews.com/news/577039-you-are-taking-drugs-without-you-knowing)
Japan has now banned GMO wheat from its country potentially spelling financial disaster for Oregon wheat farmers with accidentally infected Monsanto GMO wheat. (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/30/business/energy-environment/genetically-engineered-wheat-found-in-oregon-field.html?partner=rss&emc=rss)
Americans are buying more organic food products every day and the word is spreading. Whole Food stores and local farmers markets are flourishing offering fresh and GMO free veggies and meat. Everyday “useless eaters,” like myself, are growing their own food at home in small plots and the new Victory gardens are helping fight the war on our food supply. (http://www.undergroundhealth.com/how-to-avoid-genetically-modified-foods/)
The anti-Monsanto backlash is well underway and succeeding nicely. Many activists are demanding that their state representatives pass laws making clear distinctions between what is GMO and what is not GMO through proper labeling of foods, in ALL food markets. (http://rt.com/usa/monsanto-march-protests-world-069/)
Question your local food markets about GMO labeling, send emails by the dozen, inform food stores that you want better than GMO products and keep the poisonous fluoride out of American drinking water, which the city of Portland has done by the way. (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mercola/warning-this-daily-habit-_b_741635.html)


Don't make your kids sick by feeding them multicolored candies and/or dyed yellow mac and cheese, soda, meat fed GMO grain, and other tainted products.(http://www.nongmoshoppingguide.com/)
Get involved and become active in local gardens, learn creative ways to make all natural, organically prepared frozen dinners for  your children and support your local small farmers who sell their produce, cheeses, meats and other products at your local farmers markets. (http://www.oregonfarmersmarkets.org/)
The reality is, there are no quick fixes, there are no fast-tracks to good health, or proper nutrition. Proper farming practices and production of grains, vegetables and fruit take time and money. They always have and they always will.

                                          You cannot fool Mother Nature.
