Not 75%. Not even 85%. A powerful 96 plus percent of individuals within the United States\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.centerforfoodsafety.org\/issues\/976\/ge-food-labeling\/us-polls-on-ge-food-labeling\" target=\"_blank\">are in<\/a>\u00a0serious favor of labeling Monsanto\u2019s GMOs. And despite Monsanto\u2019s millions defeating many labeling campaigns within various states like California, public resistance is catching up.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, the company has used a number of pro-GMO agencies to band together in forming campaigns aimed at stopping GMO labeling altogether. Oftentimes, these groups\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/naturalsociety.com\/monsanto-gmo-labeling-96-approval\/\" target=\"_blank\">use fabrications<\/a>\u00a0regarding the increased cost of groceries and even fake quotes from the FDA in order to push their agenda.<\/p>\n<p>But despite the millions, the propaganda messages are no longer working.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Fast Food Is Failing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Monsanto and the GMO industry at large absolutely love the fast food industry. They are what I call the \u2018soul mates of the disease industry\u2019. Specifically, you have to remember that the fast food industry absolutely thrives on the cheapest, lowest quality ingredients. A market where there is no room for health, environmental concerns, or even morality.<\/p>\n<p>The result: Monsanto\u2019s GMOs are absolutely coveted in order to help produce the mass array of ultra low quality fast food \u2018meals\u2019 that, for the last few decades, have made up a major part of the American diet. Yes, it\u2019s depressing.<\/p>\n<p>But now, with McDonald\u2019s continuing to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/naturalsociety.com\/mcdonalds-keeps-losing-money-month-after-month\/\" target=\"_blank\">lose money month after month<\/a>, and the growth of competitors to fast food titans that are choosing to use local and even organic ingredients, the end of the fast food leaders is quickly coming. McDonald\u2019s has even announced on record that they will not be switching to the new GMO potato, and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/2015\/03\/07\/391520209\/mcdonalds-is-limiting-use-of-antibiotics-in-its-chicken\" target=\"_blank\">claims have<\/a>\u00a0been made that their new chicken purchasing will be from farms that do not abuse antibiotics.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/naturalsociety.com\/5-reasons-monsanto-will-continue-losing-money-in-2015\/\" target=\"_blank\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The biotech giant known as Monsanto is facing major financial downturn amid the backlash from consumers over their concerning GMO creations and the international rejection of various GMO exports following the confirmation of crop contamination across the United States.
