For decades, the Hershey Co. has used sugar made from both sugar beets and sugar cane, but it decided earlier this year to stop buying beet sugar because it comes from genetically modified, or GM, seeds that some consumers don’t like.
Hershey, with 2014 sales of $7.4 billion and more than 80 brands of candy sold around the world, was a huge customer for beet sugar farmers
Hershey communications director Jeff Beckman confirmed that the kisses and many other products stocked on shelves since Halloween no longer contain beet sugar.
Beckman said the sourcing switch has nothing to do with the safety of beet sugar, and the company’s website contains references to numerous scientific groups that have concluded that GM sugar is safe to consume.
“This is really just a matter of listening to and being responsive to what consumers want us to put into their products,” he said.

А эта цветная капуста ГМО ??
Щас на ферме видел, но не стал брать..
Никак решится не мог какой цвет мне нужен...
Мрак. Надо было спросить у фермера, что за краситель/чернила впрыснул в вены, когда капуста была еще ребенком. Можно ли таким образом модифицировать собственного ребенка в черного? Мне нравятся негритята. У них более здоровой вид и цвет кожи.

Тут меня жена спрашивала что это за херня такая "Кошер салт". Не заметил мож еще "Халял салт" продается. Видимо руки неверных не касаются таких продуктов.
Кстати правоверные иудеи что скажут насчет того в какой руке следует держать салфетку при подтирании задницы. Правую кошерно или нет? Знаю что не халяльно правую - испытано на мусульманах. Сразу анекдот в тему. Девочка Вовочке - ты почему руки не моешь после туалета - нас Марь Ивановна учила что мыть надо.
Вовочка - А нас Петр Иванович учил на руки не ссать.
