I go out of my way to avoid GMOs, just as I avoid processed foods-I was raised on all-natural foods, and believe it is healthier. No one I know who eats only natural produce has any serious food allergies.
There has to be a reason we are seeing all these “deadly” allergies to everything from peanuts to popcorn, and the only common denominator seems to be something related to the food we produce now. The only life threatening allergies I recall as a kid were insect stings-everything else was just the inconvenience of hives and an upset stomach-even in the 70’s when I had a kid. I think GMOs could be the culprit...

I'm not at all religious in a formal way. Call it religion or the rules of evolution, it's probably not a good idea to mess with forces that we can't understand. They'll bite back.
“In this hidden backroom deal, Sen. [Barbara] Mikulski turned her back on consumer, environmental and farmer protection in favor of corporate welfare for biotech companies such as Monsanto,” Andrew Kimbrell, executive director of the Center for Food Safety, said in a statement. “This abuse of power is not the kind of leadership the public has come to expect from Sen. Mikulski or the Democrat Majority in the Senate.”

Eat what you know is good for you, and don’t eat what isn’t.
There are other synthetic or semi synthetic products in the food chain and I don’t want to give up enjoying them at my choice because they are bummers to other people.
