Reeka, Im A OK with GM foods, I am also quite happy to allow irradiation to be used to sterilize and preserve food as well. Most of the objections are "what If" scenarios with no real scientific backing. Hysteria, and Hype are the weapons used against both which of course I detest. As you say, we have been eating them for decades and our expected life span has steadily increased, not decreased.
With GM foods there is a problem with cross polination, but without modified foods and farming technique we wouldn't have 6 billion people alive right now. I think it is unconscionable that people are starving while tons of GM food sit untouched.
All just my opinion on what I have seen in the press.
