Dear Ms. Devine: Thank you for taking the time to contact us. Our overriding commitment is to offer products which satisfy consumers and meet the highest standards of quality and safety. It is possible that our products contain genetically modified ingredients. The government does not make a distinction between genetically modified and conventional ingredient sources, therefore, neither do the suppliers from whom we obtain our ingredients. While many government agencies and scientific organizations worldwide have confirmed the safety and benefits of genetically modified foods, we recognize the use of genetically modified ingredients is a cause of concern for some consumers. We are constantly reviewing our ingredient supply sources and continually look for ways to offer consumers the choices they want in the marketplace. We appreciate hearing from you and hope you will continue to enjoy our products. Sincerely,

Martin Bryan Consumer Care Representative Case 1039488683
