Help Reveal GM Cheese Cover Up!

The fact that 90 percent of hard cheeses in Europe are made using GM is being covered up in the UK -- it should be in the headlines. Earlier this week, I wrote a letter to The Independent (UK) asking them why this has NEVER come out in the press, but they will not publish my short letter, nor have they returned my phone calls. This is the same paper which recently published a headline story on how Aspartame is being produced using GM. Surely, the fact that the same kind of GM technique is being used for cheese is worthy of a headline!

Below is there phone number. Ask them why they are censoring this important information, since according to all groups in the UK (government, Greenpeace, consumers) the public has a right to know how food is made. Mention Dan Spillane's letter.

UK editorial offices at 44 171 293 2802; you must dial "011" first from most places in the US. There is about an eight hour difference (ahead).

Here is the headline story they printed recently:

"World's top sweetener is made with GM bacteria"
