 A 2014 Vermont law went into effect on July 1, 2016, and some food manufacturers (including General Mills, Mars, Kellogg's, the Campbell Soup Company, PepsiCo, ConAgra, Frito-Lay, and Bimbo Bakeries USA) began distributing products either locally or nationwide with labels such as "Partially produced with Genetic Engineering".Other manufacturers removed about 3,000 non-compliant products from sale in Vermont.The federal government of the United States passed a law at the end of that month pre-empting all state laws, including Vermont's.
