GMOs are guaranteed not to be found in which type of food?

There are no foods that contain corn, soy, canola, papayas, or any foods that are known to have been genetically modified that can be guaranteed NOT to contain any GMOs, not even foods labeled "100% organic" or foods on the Non-GMO Project's list of non-GMO foods. This is due to GMO varieties cross-pollinating with organically grown crops, which has resulted in the possibility, if not probability of organically grown foods having small amounts of GMOs in them. The foods on the Non-GMO Project list can actually contain up to 0.9% GMOs (as stated on the Non-GMO Project's website).
