Kraft Solves Case Of GMO Food Label Warning

The New York Times (6/6, B6, Strom, Subscription Publication, 1.68M) reports, “The case of the labels warning of genetically modified wheat found on Kraft Mac & Cheese boxes in Britain has been solved.

The labels, posted on the product’s own Facebook page and picked up by a food blogger, set off a buzz among consumers overseas and in the United States around the same time last week that modified wheat was found in a field in Oregon.” 

But, according to Kraft spokesperson Lynne Galia, the company “does not use genetically engineered wheat, which is not commercially available. ... ‘We have no authorized distributor’” in Britain, Galia added.
