My understanding is that most corn and soy in the U.S. is GMO, but not wheat. They have found an extremely small percentage of wheat to be contaminated, but think it is due to cross contamination during shipment in containers that probably held GMO corn and soy. Monsanto applied for a permit some years ago to produce GMO wheat but didn't follow through when suppliers said they wouldn't buy the wheat.
