sans OGM...

Fine for the first part, though I'm not sure what is meant by the second part, or any idea how best to translate it.

I think the use of 'no' quite clearly idicates 'without' or 'does not contain any', rather than one particular item being 'non-GM'
Peer comment(s):

agree Debbie Tacium Ladry : sans OGM c'est bien - 'une seule variété' - I believe it refers to a vegetable component of the feed that's derived from a single species//Yes, of course - I'm still trying to get my head around why this would matter for pet food ;-)

Thanks, Debbie! I thought possibly so, but the problem is that botanically, 'species' and 'variety' are 2 DIFFERENT things! So where to go...?

Thanks, Dan!
agree df49f (X) : sans OGM est la terminologie correcte en France - and no is clearly "sans" and not "non-OGM"
