This blog started several years ago when I became interested in the connection between coffee farmers and the final cup. Since then my wife and I started a coffee roastery business and have enjoyed every single step along the way. This is a place where I share my personal opinions and reflect on my experiences with the coffee industry, coffee origins, coffee profiles and everything coffee.

GMOs - Does your food have them?
Not completely sure what GMOs are. But I sure would like to know if they are in my foods, and the food that my children eat. A little heard of protest went on in LA this past week, precisely to raise this issue. Dont we have a right to know if our food contains Genetically Modified Organisms. Why are food giants and agricultural corporations so opposed to informing the public what is it that we eat?
Question was raised by a Vermont Senator and a vote took place in the Senate last week. At least now the State if Vermont will requite labels to be clear on the issue, just like most other developed countries in the world. Why does the US not take a stand? Big money again and again.
