You might need to look at your food shelf and get rid of most of it. It is not unusual for food producers to have specialized ingredients grown. Coors had its own version of six row barley. Never mind some of the exclusive poultry contracts.

I do try be aware and do shop based on my feeling. I no longer buy Post cereals after they went all cheap and changed the ingredients. But Post cereals makes more then just cereals. I may not be able to avoid the company entirely but I will do my best to avoid supporting companies I don’t agree with. I am not even sure the farmers are right here because if PepsiCo did engineer the potatoe sure they should be paid. But this looks like the farmers obtained the seeds legally within the laws of their country and now are getting in crap for it. I don’t know who is right IANAL. But I do not think I want a world where plants are controlled. Not sure how this is solved.
