US Rice Supply Contaminated

by indigo girl allnurses Guide

Why and how does this keep happening? First the corn supply and now rice contaminated by these companies. But, not to worry, it's safe they say. Where are the studies on the long term effects of these genetically modified foods? US consumers are becoming part of many experiments (accidental or otherwise), without informed consent.

Well, I suppose when environmental protection is weakened by reducing the ability of the oversight comission, or the actual tasks are changed to provide greater profit for companies rather than protection for the people...Oh, you knew that! It was a trick question!!! Silly me.:trout:
