Dear Supporter,

Do you know what's in your grocery cart?  How about where it's from?  Most Americans don’t know that we are consuming more imported fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as canned and frozen produce and fruit juice, than ever before.  Learn more about where your food is coming from with our new Global Grocer online tool!

Imported food can contain hidden dangers.  Produce from other countries is more likely to contain foodborne-illness causing bacteria and illegal levels of pesticides than domestically grown fruits and vegetables.

What's even more disturbing is that most imported foods aren't even labeled as such because of loopholes in country-of-origin labeling requirements.  That's why we've created a great new online tool to help you learn what countries your produce comes from. 

The Global Grocer: Where is Your Produce From?, our new online tool, will transport you to a virtual supermarket where you can learn the likelihood that different food items are imported – and from what countries.  Check it out!

Thanks for taking action,

Alex, Sarah Noelle, and the Food Team
