Thanks very helpful answer

Some time ago there was a question on AB as to whether Walkers crisps were made using GM sunflower oil. Walkers own answer to this query was, 'There are no GM products in Walkers crisps.' It was pointed out that this answer meant that Walkers could still be using oil obtained from GM sunflowers, since any GM content could have been stripped out during the extraction and refining process. The question was put to Walkers several times. They refused to respond with a simple 'No', but continued to repeat the answer they gave in the first place. Suspicious, or what?
