Organic Coconut Flour Company CCL Donates to Organic Consumers Association

CCL, a company on Amazon that offers organic coconut flour, announces its increased giving to the Organic Consumers Association to help protect customers from the dangers of unlabeled genetically modified food.

Cincinnati, United States – July 20, 2015 /PressCable/ —

A health foods company that produces organic coconut flour, Coconut Country Living (CCL), has recently increased its giving to the Organic Consumer Association (OCA), in an effort to help proliferate legislation protecting consumers and the environment from the deleterious effects of genetically modified food. The recent donation, as part of an effort to educate consumers, is an important piece of CCL’s greater campaign to protect organic food in America and throughout the world.

CCL’s flagship product on Amazon, Cookoo for Coconut Flour, has been sold on Amazon since February 2015 to fund periodic contributions to the OCA, though no established amount per package has been donated in general when customers buy the coconut flour. Though Cookoo for Coconut Flour is produced outside of the United States on the island of Sri Lanka and is USDA certified organic, CCL has continued funding campaigns to protect organic farmers in the United States where the coconut flour is now sold.

Michael DiSalvo, owner of CCL, had this to say about his company’s relationship with OCA:

“Coconut Country Living is happy to support the efforts of the Organic Consumers Association in passing legislation so consumers can know if their food contains genetically modified or harmful ingredients. I personally believe the research done on the effects of GMOs (genetically modified organisms) on mammals is clear when scientists have seen organ damage, cancer, stillbirths, and deaths in these innocent animals. Studies have shown enough anecdotal proofs that the poisons and GMOs of the Monsanto Corporation are hurting human health, and I believe long-term testing needs to show that any of the aforesaid products are safe. We applaud the work of OCA in pushing legislation so consumers know that many of the ingredients that they purchase in grocery stores have GMO sources. Product labeling is essential to protect the marketplace since most Americans know they should not be flirting with these dangerous substances.”

An undefined amount of the proceeds from Cookoo for Coconut will continue to go toward protecting American families from genetically modified ingredients via organizations like OCA, though supplies of the coconut flour may be limited in the next months because of a change in inventory management, Customers are therefore urged to stock up on their coconut flour supplies as CCL orders new products and changes out inventory.

Though the +1lb bonus size coconut flour has temporarily sold out, all orders of the 3 lb size still receive CCL’s free coconut flour cookbook as part of the order.
