    And the people who produce food to meet a particular market such as yourself aren't out to make a buck either? Because I'm sure they aren't doing it for free. Can your butchers tell you with 100% certainty that the meat the sell isn't fed gm food? Do they personally know their suppliers and what they feed their stock, are their suppliers 100% certain that the feed they use isn't derived from GM crops?

    ETA - I just checked out the true food link and all they list in their 'red' category for meat are;
    Pace Farm Eggs
    Baiada
    Bartter Enterprises
    Inghams
    Steggles
    Sunnybrand Chickens
    Don Smallgoods
    KR Castlemaine
    Primo Smallgoods
    Watsonia

    so there is no mention there of beef or lamb at all? And those on the green list, how can you be sure that your butcher is sourcing it from those places? I ask because at times business may change suppliers and you may not know that they have so you may not be getting what you pay for.

    ETA #2, I find it somewhat amusing and possibly hypocritcal that the true food network, run by GREENPEACE lists NESTLE products on its GREEN list!!!! Definitely not credible in my eyes now.
