If you live in the USA, unless laws change, you will most certainly not be notified if the banana you're buying is GMO. If the latest round in Oregon is any indicator, laws are proposed and struck down by the intense lobbying of the GMO industry - money rules, not consumers or reality. So... growing your own is certainly the safest way nowadays. I cannot believe that GMO is making headway into the EU! I thought they'd resist - but again, money talks, consumers suffer.

At least the GMO banana crops can't cross pollinate the organic banana crops like what happens with Soy, Corn, Wheat, etc. Who wants some fish DNA with your breakfast cerial?  |
