Applying Roundup this close to harvest means that the plants do not have time to metabolize this killer herbicide, nor is there usually time for the rain to wash off and dilute this poison. Roundup is simply dumped in huge quantities on the plants to dry them out, and then they are quickly harvested, still reeking of glyphosate.

Which foods are being subjected to this overload of Roundup just before you buy them?

  • Barley
  • Beans
  • Flax
  • Lentils
  • Non-GMO canola
  • Non-GMO soybeans
  • Oats
  • Peas
  • Sugar cane
  • Wheat

This means that just about everything in your grocery store is made using these crops! There really isn’t much that doesn’t use oats, soy, wheat, or sugar cane!

It’s not that other conventional foods are safe anyway. Most non-organic foods are sprayed regularly throughout the growing season. In fact, some pesticides are genetically implanted right into the food itself, such as in the case of GM corn. This means that you get a dose of these chemicals — not just once, but three times or more as the crops are routinely sprayed.

Just say NO to conventional produce and GMO foodstuffs. Perhaps if we can get enough Americans to stop buying these products, Monsanto will lose so much money they will stop pushing their poisons on the American people.
