Most of what I do up here on unvegan.com is all in good fun. Yeah, I love my meat and while you might think vegetables are the thing I hate most in the world, they are not. In fact, I hate a lot of things more than vegetables (usually Ohio State). Right now, one of those things is Monsanto.
“Monsanto claims that their foods are tested, and surely they are. Yet, so are foods containing peanut products and companies still have to label them as such. ”
This is because upon testing peanuts can actually be shown to be a public health issue, where as with GMO the same can not be said.
Gmo labeling is no more than a unscientific attempt to create fear and distrust akin to the warning sticker put in biology text books by creationists.

I am not afraid but I still want anything and everything that is in my food labeled just like every other company has to do! Sounds like there afraid to give people the right to Choose!!
Interesting and scary. I’ve been researching GMOs and am actually in the process of moving to Vermont. While the fact that they are trying to label GMO foods as such excites me, it also doesn’t surprise me that Monsanto is trying like hell to block it.
