Environmental activists were critical Tuesday of Kraft Foods for what they claim is the company's use of ingredients from genetically modified crops in its food products. Earthday Resources for Living Green released a list of 10 companies it claims are misleading consumers and also ruining the environmental health of the planet. Kraft Foods was the one food company on the list, which accused it of labeling genetically modified foods as "natural." That exposes people to risks of allergies, increased antibiotic resistance, herbicide use and harm to insects and wildlife. "Kraft can't hide their environmental impact behind glossy nature ads," said Kate Madigan of the Public Interest Research Group. "As the saying goes, the proof is in the pudding."
