A report about Melania Trump banning a company’s food products from her home because of genetic modifications has been deemed false by the website Snopes which sets out to debunk myths and rumors.
According to Snopes, “On 30 May 2017, web sites began posting reports stating that First Lady Melania Trump had banned all food products containing ingredients associated with the multinational agrochemical company Monsanto.” 
The original source for this claim was identified as a site called YourNewsWire.com which quotes Mrs. Trump as saying about her son, “Barron’s health has improved out of sight since we started eating organic, non genetically modified food.” 
The piece goes on to say, “In the interests of her son Barron’s health – as well as her own – Melania decided to eliminate processed foods containing GM crops from her family home.” 
However, Snopes has determined that the claim is “fake news” and that many of the quotes have, in fact, been traced to a 2010 article in Yes! Magazine where the writer, April Dávila, tried to temporarily eliminate Monsanto products from her family’s diet. 
YourNewsWire.com has previously been identified as a fake news source by major outlets like CBS News and the U.K. newspaper The Times. 
Stories on the site that have been proven to be false include one linking Hillary Clinton to a D.C.-area child-sex ring and another about the Queen’s possible abdication over Brexit.
