Today, I'm at Whole Foods in Red Bank NJ
and I'm here to speak to, clients, customers like you and me
about what they feel is necessary about
Genetically Modified Organisms or GMOs
Hi everyone, I'm here with Rob at the Red Bank Whole Foods
and I'm going to ask him a couple of questions about how he feels about genetically modified food
and what Whole Food's stance is going to be
Do you know much about GMOs?
Do you buy organic often?
I buy it from time to time yes
How would you feel if Whole Foods labels them as GMOs, and than you can buy them for cheaper at ShopRite,
buy them at ShopRite or Whole Foods? - If I'm getting the same product , I'm going to get it as cheap as I can.
it as cheap as I can. That's a good thing, I like that, I would do the same , seriously though.
so do you think GMOs are important for your health, or is not really a big issue?
or is not really a big issue?
-I would prefer not to buy them.
I think that's pretty good, and do you buy organic often?
Yeah I do
Okay perfect, Thank you so much Robert and have wonderful day
Hi everyone, I'm with Stephanie here at the Red Bank Whole Foods
and I'm going to ask her a couple of questions... Stephanie, how often do you buy organic foods?
you only buy Organic, that's a great quality to have.
and how do you feel about GMOs?
- I am absolutely against GMOs. I do also buy localized..
I shouldn't say just organic, anything I can't find localized
I'll come to somewhere like Whole Foods to get organic stuff that I can't get locally.
That's why Whole Foods is great
I think that Whole Foods are going to start to label their GMOs
What do you think? Should they? - I think they absolutely should,
I think it's people's choice whether or not they want to buy Genetically Modified Organisms
we don't have enough research about the effects of GMOs.
I know that the American Medical Association
has conducted research on people who had consumed GMOs
but that study is just 8 years old. We just don't know the long term effects 20 years down the road.
I'm
So I think it's just people's choice
so why not label it.
Thank you so much Stephanie, have a lovely day.
Good Morning everyone I'm with this kind gentleman right here at the Red Bank Whole Foods
