** *<http://farmwars.info/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Boycott-Land-OLakes-copy1.jpg>* *By Citizens for Safe Food and Feed* ***Farm Wars <http://farmwars.info/?p=5376>* By now youve heard how President Obama and his Monsanto Administration have plowed through approvals of three more genetically engineered products, including GE alfalfa. Well, heres something else you should know: To produce its Round-Up Ready Alfalfa seeds, Monsanto partnered with a company called Forage Genetics International, which is a *wholly owned subsidiary of Land OLakes dairy co-op.* Thats right, Land OLakes stands to make a fortune from polluting our food supply with untested and unlabeled GMOs. To protest, you could sign one of the many petitions going around that will likely just be ignored. But theres another way to show your disapproval of genetically engineered Round-Up Ready Alfalfa: *Boycott all Land OLakes products* its butter, cheese, eggs, speads, margarine, seasonings, creams, cocoa and cappuccino mixes, sour cream and milk. All of them. You have the power to *economically punish Land OLakes* the owner of Forage Genetics, *Monsantos partner in crime* for its role in polluting the food chain with untested and unlabeled GMOs, increasing the use of toxic glyphosate herbicide, and potentially destroying the organic beef and dairy feed market *by loudly refusing to support Land OLakes with your dollars. * Tell all your friends to go to all the supermarkets in their area and let the check-out clerks know that theyre boycotting Land OLakes products until they are out of the GMO business, loud enough for other shoppers to hear. And next, stop by the store managers desk and tell him about the boycott. Send Land OLakes and other companies a clear message: *HAY you Were FED UP with GMOs in our food supply! * And to make sure Land OLakes knows why its sales are down, contact its president and CEO Chris Policinski and let him know you wont be buying Land OLakes products anymore because you dont want genetically engineered food or animal feed: Chris Policinski President and CEO Land OLakes 4001 Lexington Avenue Arden Hills, MN 55126-2998 651/481-2222 Spread the word You got it. It is the only voting system the corporations understand. They vote with their dollars and purchase legislation and favors from a government that is suppsoe to be of the people and by the people. On the other hand, they wouldn't have that money to purchase legislation that is bad for us, IF WE DIDN'T FIRST PURCHASE THEIR PRODUCTS.
