Require clear labelling of foods produced using genetically modified organisms

Closed 32 signatures

What the petition asks

This is particularly important for meat, fish and dairy products from animals that have been fed on genetically modified organisms, as current UK law does not require labelling for this. Consumers deserve this information so as to make an informed choice about what they buy.
GMOs: Consumers have the right to know, through clear labelling, if genetically modified organisms have been used in any part of the production of foods, including feed.
