I've started shopping more at the places more likely to have nonGMO foods, but it's not easy to find! I've read that a lot of food companies claim they want to go nonGMO, but there's so few nonGMO food producers that they can't. I avoid using BT, since I love the caterpillars and butterflies, but unless you raise your own food, it's hard to avoid produce that has ever had BT on it. As you said, it's considered organic, so even food labeled organic can have it.
