Default Re: Genetically modified bananas

I happen to have first hand research testing data from UC Davis, of people whom I can trust with my life, and they have done related works and testing about GMO. That is why to a certain extent, I have tried their products. But outside of this circles of colleagues, that would be an entirely different matter when it comes to trusting the FDA and people with political non-scientific agenda.

You have every right not to trust non-scientist politicians, aka, the government and political appointees, those mal-informed decision makers. It is so hard to trust the government because of political rather than scientific discussions, and I'm with you on how they have handled issues related to global climate change ... but I still try to keep an open mind on them, they are the only ones we've got, and I have voted a lot of them out last November 7.

When it come to politics, corporations, and anyone who wants to rule the world by any means possible....I don't trust them! I could never trust them when they won't even inform the consumer that they are eating GMO products that have not been tested on humans? Not me, no way.......they'll have to pry the organic food out of my cold dead hands.

"F" all GMO products!
