(15,859 posts)I buy organic whenever I can. But not all fruits and veggies are available all the time. Which means that I, unfortunately, occasionally buy food thats treated with poisons. I generally try to stick with with "clean 15" though. So the problem is, that a food that would normally be on the clean 15, could be a monsanto product instead. So while I think Im buying a less pesty food, I could really be buying a food dosed with a massive amount of round-up.
FWIW, I would prefer it if all produce came with labels that told me what toxins were applied to it, not just GM food. Beyond that I have a real issue with Monsantos terminator seeds, etc. But thats another issue. As far as the actual GM crops themselves, I havent seen any studies that would lead me to believe they are unsafe, without the poisons.
