Chipotle to Stop Serving Genetically Altered Food

In a first for a major restaurant chain, Chipotle Mexican Grill on Monday will begin serving only food that is free of genetically engineered ingredients.

“This is another step toward the visions we have of changing the way people think about and eat fast food,” said Steve Ells, founder and co-chief executive of Chipotle. “Just because food is served fast doesn’t mean it has to be made with cheap raw ingredients, highly processed with preservatives and fillers and stabilizers and artificial colors and flavors.”

In 2013, Chipotle was the first restaurant chain to indicate which items contained genetically modified organisms, and a small but growing number of restaurants, largely in fine dining, also now label their menus.

I didn't think preservatives and fillers and stabilisers and artificial colours and flavours fell under genetically altered food :huh: I thought genetically altered just meant that the animals used for meat were genetically enhanced and bred as they produced a higher yield :confused:

​I think his statement was just in general. He doesn't believe fast food has to have all those things, including GMO's. 

And not just animals can be GMO's. Vegetables as well.
