The Truefood Guide is your shopping list for healthy, GE-free food
Australia has very limited laws for the labelling of genetically engineered (GE) foods. That’s where the Truefood Guide comes in. The Guide rates food brands and products as Green (GE-free) or Red (may contain GE ingredients).
Buy Green Brands and products in the green section have policies and procedures throughout their supply chain to actively avoid
ingredients derived from GE crops.
Avoid Red Brands and products in the red section of the Guide may contain ingredients derived from GE crops.
GE crops were introduced in Australia in 2008. GE canola is now commercially grown in NSW and Victoria. Canola is found in many pantry foods from margarine and vegetable oil, to ice-cream, breads and sauces. Ingredients derived from soy, maize and cottonseed are also in many food products in Australia.
Most Australians do not want to eat GE food. Many food companies are responding to consumer demands by removing GE ingredients from their products.
You can help by asking copanies with red-listed brands to adopt a non-GE policy.

Green GE-free brands are rated green. These companies have a clear policy on excluding GE-derived ingredients, including oils derived from GE crops, and animal products from animals fed on GE crops. (Note: We do not rate on processing aids and yeasts that are processed in a laboratory setting rather than in the open environment.)
Stephanie Alexander, Chef “I’m concerned that the next
generation of environmentally aware consumers may not be able to enjoy
GM-free food in the future.”
Ian Parmenter, Chef “GE crops may pose risks to the
environment and the economy, and should not be grown in Australia.”
Rosemary Stanton, Nutritionist “If we are to get GE canola in our food supply, it should be labelled. If it is not labelled, we should ask why.”
Tobie Puttock, Chef “If GM products are a reality, then we at least have the right to know exactly what we are eating.”
GE free ✔
Red Brands that may include GE-derived ingredients in their products are rated red. This includes brands that either:• contain GE derived ingredients; and/or• have no clear policy on GE-derived
ingredients; and/or• have ignored or refused Greenpeace’s
request for information regarding their policies on GE-derived ingredients.
