A Greenpeace volunteer dressed in a costume depicting a Nestle product holds up messages from over 40,000 of Nestle's own customers in front of Nestle house, in Gurgaon. Greenpeace volunteers today delivered anti-GM messages on behalf of more than 40,500 consumers across India, demanding that Nestlé India commit to providing GM-free food now and in future. In an online Greenpeace poll, nearly 98% of the 4,000 people polled stated that they will not eat GM food even if it becomes available in future. In September 2009, Nestlé baby food products sampled by Greenpeace were found to be genetically contaminated in China.
