I’m not so sure about the claimed $50 list price - the vendor’s website has it at $42 for a 12-pack.
Nearly 100% of all corn products in this country are now GMO. I grew up in the South and I love grits for breakfast. Are these grits organic? Non GMO? I’ve tried, even at the health food store, and can’t find any grits or polenta that is not genetically modified. It is sad that our food sources have become so poluted.
For whatever it is worth, the pictures of the front of the product packaging has text on it claiming “GMO Free Peppers.”
“GMO Free Peppers” yes maybe … but it’s the “Yellow Corn Grits” that is almost 100% sure to be made with GMO corn… as stated above. 
Gambini: So, Mr. Tipton, how could it take you five minutes to cook your grits, when it takes the entire grit-eating world 20 minutes.
Mr. Tipton: I don’t know. I’m a fast cook, I guess.
Gambini: I’m sorry, I was all the way over here. I couldn’t hear you. Did you say you’re a fast cook? That’s it?! Are we to believe that boiling waters soaks into a grit faster in your kitchen than on any place on the face of the earth?!
Mr. Tipton: I don’t know.
Gambini: Well perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist on your stove! Were these magic grits? I mean, did you buy them from the same guy who sold Jack his beanstalk beans?!
Yes, they call out the peppers and grits as non-GMO, but that leaves the corn wide open to be GMO.
Personally I don’t give a shit if anything is GMO other than how farmers can be sued for inadvertently having someone else’s engineered product end up in their fields. But if a company is going to tout that stuff in their product is non-GMO, it better ALL be non-GMO or it’s just hypocritical.
How can you have any pudding,if you don’t eat your grits??
I don’t know everything, but I read one of these highly publicized cases. The farmer claimed the GMO seed contaminated his crops. Something like 1/2 or 3/4 of his crops were unlicensed GMO. Basically some farmers save the GMO seeds despite their contract that prohibits this.
You are correct it is near impossible to find non-GMO corn grits in the USA. A few exist by small producers but all we tried unfortunately didn’t cut it for our recipe. We agree that there are large issues with our food system and make every attempt to be as transparent as possible with our ingredients. Our peppers are non-GMO from Hatch, NM; and our cheese is rBST free and non-GMO from farmers in IN, WI, and IL; the corn is from farmers in IN and KY and milled in Indiana.
100% agree:grinning:
