In the US, GMOs are in as much as 80 percent of conventional processed foods and a 2012 Mellman Group poll found that 91 percent of American consumers wanted GMOs labeled. The Non-GMO Project verification process includes ongoing testing of all at-risk ingredients and rigorous traceability and segregation practices to ensure ingredient integrity after testing through to the finished product. Currently, the Non-GMO Project is the only organization offering independent verification of testing and GMO controls for products in the US and Canada.
Crunchmaster crackers are packed with oven-baked, whole grain goodness. They are certified gluten free, made with whole grains, cholesterol free, low in sodium and saturated fat, and do not use hydrogenated oil.
