Stop The Ban: Why They Don't Want You To Know What's In Your Food | Graham Elwood

An investigative food safety report and corporate accountability commentary hosted by Graham Elwood for The Political Vigilante. Prompted by an article submission from Patreon supporter Nicholas M. Thompson, Graham examines a Forbes report covering a petition filed with the FDA by the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF)—a corporate-funded think tank—seeking to ban the "Non-GMO Project" butterfly verification label. Graham exposes how agribusiness giants use front foundations and astroturf campaigns to mislead consumers, examines the connection between GMO monoculture and carcinogenic glyphosate herbicides like Roundup, and discusses why food labelling transparency is essential for consumer health.
