April 28th, 2015Via: Guardian:
Chipotle will no longer use genetically modified food in its stores, the company announced on Monday. The fast-growing Mexican restaurant chain will be the first US company to use only non-GM ingredients.
“There is a lot of debate about genetically modified foods,” Steve Ells, the founder, chairman and co-CEO of Chipotle, said. “Though many countries have already restricted or banned the use of GMO crops, it’s clear that a lot of research is still needed before we can truly understand all of the implications of widespread GMO cultivation and consumption. While that debate continues, we decided to move to non-GMO ingredients.”
