(36,827 posts)I seriously doubt you have as many choices as you think. Regardless the point which you are apparently oblivious to is the effort to force GMO labeling is financed primarily by large corporations who own the vast majority of the organic market. It's really nothing more than a campaign based on irrational fear and nothing more than the same story of large corporations who seek to use government regulation to increase their market share. Meanwhile nobody has died from any GMO products ever, and we just can't say the same about food fertilized with "organic" cow shit which has managed to kill thousands and sicken who knows how many. And while I wouldn't favor a campaign to label organic food that's fertilized with cow shit, it might be interesting to see what would happen if Big Agra financed a campaign to do exactly that as they'd have much more of a rational basis to do so. I suspect the same people who are now big proponents of full disclosure of "nutrients" would somehow figure out a way to be opposed to it. You think?
