1. Do you understand that 88% of all corn and 94% of all soybeans produced in the U.S. were grown from Genetically Engineered* seeds in 2011?
2. Do you understand that with 88% of all corn and 94% of all soybeans produced in the U.S. being from Genetically Engineered seeds that ANYTHING with corn ANYTHING (corn syrup, corn oil, corn, High Fructose Corn Syrup, etc.) or soy ANYTHING (soybean oil, soybean, soy protein concentrate, etc.) is more than likely a Genetically Engineered Food?
3. Do you think Genetically Engineered Foods should be labeled?
4. Do you believe the burden of labeling the Genetically Engineered Foods should fall to the manufacturer?
5. Do you believe the burden of labeling the Genetically Engineered Foods should fall to the retailer?
6. Do you believe that ALL Genetically Engineered Foods should be labeled or just MOST?
7. Do you believe that the Genetically Engineered Food itself should be labeled?
8. Do you believe that if the Genetically Engineered food product is not labeled the retailer should be responsible for doing so on the shelf or where the item is displayed?
9. Do you think that if the Genetically Engineered food product is not labeled (package/shelf/display) the retailer “generally must” be able to document why it is exempt?
10. Do you think an acceptable way to document exemption is to obtain a “sworn statement from the provider of the product indicating that the product has not been intentionally or knowingly genetically engineered”?
11. Do you think that it is acceptable that some food need not be labeled such as food “made from animals fed or injected with genetically engineered material but not genetically engineered themselves”?
12. Do you think that processed food that contains “one or more genetically engineered processing aids or enzymes” should be exempt from being labeled a Genetically Engineered Food?

*Genetic engineering is the process of changing the genetic material of a living organism to produce some desired change in that organism’s characteristics.
