A Campbell Soup Company official says the corporation wants the United States to adopt a mandatory GMO labeling law. Kelly Johnston, Campbell Soup Company vice president for government affairs recently made those remarks to a food policy conference. Johnson says his company lost its fear of GMO labeling after it introduced a product in Australia that was labeled with genetically modified soybeans. The product was one of the company’s most successful rollouts. There are arguments that Campbell’s is a big company forcing an expensive solution on small companies, but Johnston said it is Vermont, which passed the first labeling law in the country, that has imposed the requirement, according to the Hagstrom Report.Johnston also said that Campbell’s does not particularly like the Vermont law and would prefer the bill introduced by Senator Jeff Merkley of Oregon, adding that his bill “is not perfect, but it provides options.”
