Which is Salmon is now oked in Canada and pushing for FDA approval in the USA. Of course, these always hunger always eating salmon that grow about 4 times larger than non-GMO salmon are in pens and of course they'll get out and of course they'll breed with native salmon and of course in a short time we'll have only GMO salmon...I ain't shrugging. This is very very serious and all this FrankenFood is a real threat to our lives. And that ain't an exaggeration. Monsatan's greed will kill us all if they get their way. Gotta ban this poison now.
