These organic and natural companies sold out to the Man, and paid good money to defeat GMO transparency (supported by 90% of US) in California

From Horizon Organic:

Really appreciate you reaching out to us directly about this and completely understand your concerns about GMO labeling. Want to inform you that we’re no longer at all affiliated with Dean Foods. Last year, our company WhiteWave Foods, actually took steps to separate from Dean with our IPO and we became a standalone public company. Dean Foods recently completed the spin-off of their stake in our company.

Want to also point out that we’ve never supported or contributed to the opposition of GMO labeling, in fact it’s quite the opposite. We choose to put our contributions behind the Just label It! organization and their GMO labeling efforts nationally. You can read more about this here: http://justlabelit.org/partners/. Our company, WhiteWave, has a very clear stance in support of GMO labeling and has to date donated nearly $1 million in support of various GMO labeling and non-GMO causes.

We remain focused on our support for these important issues and hope to win you back sometime in the future. We welcome and open and transparent dialogue, so if you have any additional questions or concerns feel free to contact us anytime.

My response: Yes–there’s dialogue at the top of this (year old) blog with Silk, same family. They did, of course, contribute quite directly to fighting GMO labeling for as long as they were owned by Dean. yours, Way

Got a response from Silk, to their credit. I left a message on their wall about my below post:
