Hard to believe anyone is FOR GMO's, and feeding garbage to their family.
People have a right to know what's in their food, and research so they don't become a burden on the medical system and need medical care. It is a win-win to support Organic and healthy foods.
Americans are feeding themselves to a lot of GMO's one way or another...
The facts:
93% of soy, 88% of field corn, 94% cotton, 90% of canola seed and sugar beets planted in the US is GMO'd.
Vegetarians and Non Veggies are in the same boat for this one - We've got the same beef

I think I've found part of the problem - stop eating the cotton!
We don't have time to pursue labelling while more studies are done, stop this experiment on us now and ban this modification of our species and destruction of our environment.
Last September, the causal link between cancer and genetically modified food was confirmed in a French study, the first independent long-term animal feeding study of its kind. The disturbing details can be found here: New Study Finds GM Corn and Roundup Causes Cancer In Rats
Did you get that? Their conclusion is that it is premature to consider GM toxins to be safe in mammals. Billions have already been exposed to Bt toxins, in combination with glyphosate-based herbicide formulations such as Roundup, and yet, most biotech research scientists and industry regulators still claim they are unequivocally safe. This has much to do with the well-known relationship that biotech corporations like Monsanto have with so-called ‘check book’ science firms who are basically paid to obfuscate adverse health outcomes of their products, such as the GMO-Cancer link. [also see: Monsanto-Funded Science Denies Emerging Roundup Cancer Link]
Consider also that the question of combined toxicity of Cry toxins and glyphosate-based residues within plants have not been sufficiently explored, and that glyphosate exposure has already been linked to non-Hodgkins lymphoma and hairy cell leukemia in the biomedical literature.[ii] The reality is that we no longer have time to wait around for additional research to accumulate on the adverse health effects of GMOs, especially considering the biotech industry has far more capital to infuse into their own faux research on the topic. Some, in fact, argue that we should not be waiting around for the corrupt legislative process to compel manufacturers to label GMOs, rather, we should be fighting to BAN THEM NOW, advocating for the precautionary principle before its too late.

Good one! I didn't even think of that, since I never buy it, but I'm
sure it's in a LOT of dressings. I try to stay away from as many
already made stuff as I can....

heh
a sample size of 10? really. . .don't know anything about research do we
At this point it is interesting. . .but not credible.
But the sample size—ten males and ten females per group—is simply too small to draw any conclusions, Hansen says. Moreover, he adds, the researchers used a strain of rat that is known to be highly prone to developing mammary tumors. That factor, plus the small sample size, means that the prevalence of mammary tumors found among the treated female rats could be happenstance, he said.

What did Monsanto use for their studies, besides humans? Did they even do any testing for safety? We already know the answer is NO, that's not required.
