Remember that expression, “what you don’t know won’t hurt you”? Well apparently it doesn’t apply anymore. According to a recent Packaged Facts survey published in the report, Natural and Organic Foods and Beverages in the U.S.
In this survey, when asked if it is important that the product package clearly indicates GMO’s, two-thirds of consumers agreed that it was. Twenty four percent were neutral, and the rest said it was not important.
When asked if it is important that foods they buy do not contain GMO’s, over half (52%) responded it was. Twenty eight percent were neutral, and twenty percent said it did not matter.
The times, as the song goes, they are a-changin’. And along with them, so are consumer preferences about GMO’s.
