Kellogg’s admits using GMO ingredients and concluded that the use of biotech ingredients in their products is safe

Parents may want to reevaluate feeding Kellogg’s food products to their children after reading the email from Kellogg’s below. I sent an email to Kellogg’s asking what Kellogg’s products contain GMO ingredients and below is the reply. In their email reply Kellogg’s admits to using GMO ingredients and claims that GMO ingredients are safe!

James,

Thank you for contacting us about biotechnology ingredients.

Because nothing is more important to us than the safety of the products we sell, we have carefully evaluated the science related to biotechnology and have concluded that the use of biotech ingredients in our products is safe. This conclusion is supported by scientific and health organizations including the World Health Organization, the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, and the American Medical Association.

Unfortunately, we do not have a list of GMO products. Like most other food makers in the nation, we buy the ingredients for our foods on the open market. We use grain and sugar from a number of suppliers in our country, so our supply would likely include biotechnology-produced ingredients in the same proportion that they occur in the United States supply.

The ingredients we use have been approved by the appropriate regulatory authorities, and our research and manufacturing groups continually monitor our raw ingredients to ensure that only the best quality ingredients are used.

We will continue to evaluate our ingredients, suppliers and product formulas to provide the best products possible. If you have any additional questions, please give us a call at 1-800-962-1413.

Sincerely,

Samantha B. Chavira
