People get sick from so-called "organic" foods far more often than they do from mass-produced GMOs with their myriad of quality controls. The entire "organic" food industry is a sham, tricking people into paying more for inferior product. What a racket!

If not for the steady progress of science and GMO foods, there would have been mass starvation across the world and no way we could support a global population of over 7 billion people.

The anti-GMO conspiracists of the left are just as much of an albatross as the climate change deniers on the right.

There's always going to be people opposed to change and progress and the steady march of science. We shouldn't buy into their paranoia and conspiracy theories.
