Five samples were found to contain GM ingredients below the 1% threshold for adventitious presence of GMOs. Three samples declared the presence of GM ingredients on their label but none were found on analysis.</p><p><a href="http://www.foodstandards.gov.uk/news/newsarchive/gmlabellingchecks20june2003">UK Food Standards Agency Press Release and list of tested products</a>
