The Next Food Revolution
By Joanie Blaxter
The Tipping Point
I just finished taking a fabulous 5 session GMO activist training with Jeffrey Smith. He’s so knowledgeable about GMO’s and about how to pass along the information about them in an empowering way. This year the focus is to reach the tipping point where consumers outright reject GMO’s. Monsanto would like us to just eat organic foods to avoid GMO’s but what will really make an impact is when we are telling the processed food companies that we will not eat there products until they are GMO free. See our ‘What You Can Do’ page for the phone numbers of the Frankenfood Fifteen, https://momsforsafefood.org/What_we_can_do.html
They can make their same products, in exactly the same way but without the GMO ingredients. Since I don’t what my kids to be the lab rats for the untested GMO food, I am boycotting any processed foods until they no longer use any GMO ingredients. If we hit them in their profit margin, they will pay attention!

We’ve had a great bumper crop of tomato’s this year, so I pulled this recipe out of my files. We’ve made it every summer for a number of years now and it’s always a treat.
Ingredients:

• 1 medium organic Onion cut into 1/4-inch slices
