Join The Non-GMO Corn Revolution

What's the revolution?

We’ve joined forces with The Non-GMO Project and U.S. family farmers to establish a new future for U.S grown, non-GMO corn. We’re on a mission to prove that health and taste can coexist with a new generation of snacks, validating that healthy snacks don’t have to taste like cardboard. From revolutionizing how we process ingredients for the best taste and nutrition to using only non-GMO farm-harvested corn from 59 dedicated growers in Nebraska, we can trace each crop back to the region from which it came.Join us during Non-GMO Month in October to spread the word and join the revolution to support non-GMO, U.S.-grown corn!

Help us make a positive impact by joining the revolution!

Meet Jim! A seasoned farmer, Jim McGowen owns and operates the Jim and Nora McGowen Farm with his wife, son and three daughters. With roots in Beaver Crossing, Nebraska, the McGowen family farm has been passed down from generation to generation for nearly 130 years, growing corn, soybeans and wheat. Jim has been cultivating non-GMO corn in his fields - one of which was used to create our crop art - for over a decade! Thanks to farmers like Jim, Our Little Rebellion has a steady and reliable supply of transparently-grown, Non-GMO Project Verified corn to craft our deliciously crunchy popped snacks!

Why Non-GMO?

GMO Corn in the U.S

A GMO, or genetically modified organism, is a plant, animal, microorganism or other organism whose genetic makeup has been modified using recombinant DNA methods (also called gene splicing), gene modification or transgenic technology. This relatively new science creates unstable combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and viral genes that do not occur in nature or through traditional crossbreeding methods. Most packaged foods contain ingredients derived from corn, soy, canola, and sugar beet — and the vast majority of those crops grown in North America are genetically modified.

GMOs Around the World

Sixty-four countries around the world, including Australia, Japan, and all of the countries in the European Union, require genetically modified foods to be labelled. While a 2015 ABC News survey found that 93% of Americans believe genetically modified foods should be labelled, GMOs are not required to be labelled in countries like Canada, and only recently became mandatory in the US. In the absence of mandatory labeling, The Non-GMO Project was created to give consumers the informed choice they deserve.
