2. Pro-GMO Activists Share Study Showing Consumers Choose Organic Due To The
Label, Not Taste
News.com.au is reporting that in a study where consumers were given tomatoes with organic
labels and conventional tomatoes, consumers picked the organically labeled tomoato, even
though it was really a conventionally grown one that was mislabeled. Other studies have
similarly found that putting an organic label over food, even if its not organic, can make people
think it tastes better. The article has been mentioned 890 times on social media, mostly by
pro-GMO activists.
