I got this from another forum but after reading this it's really got me thinking about whether or not I will now shop according to this or will I shop according to price and availability. I wouldn't say I'm Pro-NonGE but it did concern me when I read this guide and there were items and well known companies on there that are selling items with GE, Cadbury being one of them!

OMG I am astounded at the amount of things that contain GE ingrediants. I thought we did pretty well in our house, until I read this. Yikes. Not sure I will change anything too dramatically, but would certainly "think" about changing brands when I run out of things like Roses Marmalade!

I was pleased to see lots of products I buy under the Non-GE and Changing categories. I do buy heaps of GE-free and organic foods because I eat gluten free and GF products tend to be organic/wheat free/dairy free/GE free/free of animal products/tasteless.
There are things on the list though (like bluebrid chips) that I'll continue to buy. I think my diet's already restrictive enough. The title "May Contain GE" is a bit misleading, it either does or doesn't - right? ETA: I won't necessarily stop buying products just because they might contain GE but I will be saving the list to refer to so I can look into alternatives -------------
