Of course you want to buy the healthiest foods for your family, but it can be very difficult to read all the different food labels on every single thing you buy.  For me personally grocery shopping needs to be done "Supermarket Sweep" style (you know that old game show?)...fast.  I'm a girl on a mission with kids in tow and standing around reading every food label I put in my cart is not an option. 

And even if I did read every food label that still would not tell me if something was GMO or not, it would still leave me guessing.  Here in the United States genetically modified foods are not labeled as such...but there is a little known trick I learned that guarantees the food I buy for my family is GMO free.

There is an amazing new company out there, the first of its kind that guarantees any product they carry is Non-GMO.  They regulate this very heavily and pledge to never carry GMO products.  This is great news as it takes away all the guess work and label analyzing so that I can feel 100% confident we are consuming only healthy non-GMO foods.  This is a really big deal as there is no other store or company that has this pledge and with all the dangerous health risks associated with GMO foods it's a company I am very glad exists.  I know that my kiddos are getting good clean food that their bodies desperately need to grow into healthy adults.

One other thing I really like about them is I can order right online and have it shipped (for free!) to my doorstep which as a busy working mom saves me a ton of time.  They are also so much cheaper than Wholefoods or the organic section at my grocery.  (Just to give you an idea the Gluten free oatmeal I buy at my local grocery is $5.99 a box, the same oatmeal at this store is $3.04!)  So I save money, time, and know without a shadow of a doubt I am feeding my family Non-GMO foods...can you say Super-Mom!!

There was a time when the drive-thru and I were friends.  For a short time we were best friends and see each other nearly every day.  Obviously as you are paying for your "food" you know it's not GOOD for you but you think "I'll just eat something healthy later."  

I'm a curious person, so one day I was online and decided to read the ingredient list.  I was NOT lovin' it!  I couldn't pronounce half of the ingredients...this wasn't food.  It was a bunch of chemicals made to resemble food. Not long after that I watched a documentary that gave me the wake up call I needed and from that day forward I refuse to stop and eat at a fast food restaurant and am very particular on the restaurants I do go to.

This video is from Jeffrey Smith.  He is the founder of the Institute for Responsible Technology an organization committed to eliminating GMO's (Genetically Modified Organism) from the U.S. food supply.  This is not an easy task but absolutely necessary.  The Obama administration has pledged to have products containing GMO's labeled but we have yet to see any action.
Children are at the BIGGEST risk from the dangers of GMO's.  We are bombarding their developing bodies with these toxins that are proven to be incredibly harmful.  The potential risks for kid's include cancer (the #1 killer of kid's in the U.S.), more susceptible to allergies, and antibiotic resistant diseases.  GMO is in everything from baby formula, crackers, chips, milk, pasta's, some veggies themselves, and you guessed it Kid's Meals.

Isn't it scary when the foods we feed our children EVERYDAY can determine whether or not they will be able to have children of their own...your grandchildren?  Our food supply is growing more and more toxic by the day and it’s crazy to think that it will have no impact.  Our kid’s are undergoing one of the biggest human experiments ever conducted…and with irreversible effects because GMO’s can actually alter your DNA.
