Now is your chance to demand that USDA protect food from contamination by genetically engineered (GE) alfalfa! USDA just released its draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on GE alfalfa and comments are due February 16, 2010.
TELL USDA NOT TO APPROVE MONSANTO’S GE ALFALFA . In the EIS, USDA claims that there is no evidence that consumers care about GE contamination of organic alfalfa. But while consumers might not eat alfalfa directly, alfalfa is a major feed for cows and other livestock. There have been no studies showing that GE alfalfa is safe for feeding to livestock or what effect feeding GE-alfalfa has on the meat or milk from such animals. Because of the risk of contamination of non-GE crops, approval of GE alfalfa could ultimately make it impossible for farmers to find GE-free sources for their livestock.
EDUCATE YOURSELF…..ITS YOUR WORLD……FOR MORE INFORMATION
Check out the Center for Food Safety’s fact sheet on GE alfalfa here: http://www.nationalorganiccoalition.org/CFSGEalfalfatalkingptfinal.pdf

Here’s something exotic (at least to me) that’s healthy as all-get-out, tasty and supports a local food business (& therefore helps you be a locavore). Look for FAB Ferments products at many of our area’s farmers markets. Cincinnati natives Jennifer De Marco and Jordan Aversman (pictured here at the Northside Market) make and sell lacto-fermented veggie products such as German-style sauerkraut with caraway, kimchi, spicy dill and curry krauts.

FAB Ferments is a small business selling raw organic lacto-fermented veggies such as sauerkraut, kimchi, spicy dill kraut and curry ginger carrots. Fermented foods are very beneficial to your health. They contain good bacteria that aid in digestion as well as help boost the immune system and increase metabolism. Fermented veggies have been enjoyed for thousands of years by cultures all around the world.
Cincinnati Natives Jennifer De Marco and Jordan Aversman have studied the traditional diets and have created many authentic dishes. Their krauts ferment for 3-4 weeks in stoneware crocks. They do not use whey or vinegar but sea salts, organic veggies and spices. Stop by and sample their products.
