The US produces tons of GM foods. They are banned in Europe (won't take the imports). Thus, the European farmers have no competition. Zimbabwe and Tanzania have turned down tons of GM food products offered by the US, using the ratinal that it is better that the people starve to death than risk being possibly made ill by GM foods. In the ten years or so that GM foods have been consumed in the US, no ill effects have been attributed to the GM foods.

So, what's your opinion?

BTW, if I have any of my facts wrong, PLEASE correct me. Thanks!

*hugs*
