GM Crop Soapbox Alert!

Do you want human breast milk genetic material growing in your rice?  Me neither, but the USDA doesn't care what we want.  They have approved a genetically modified rice to be grown commercially in Kansas.  It contains human proteins from both breast milk and saliva. 

The "hook" for this rice is that it would help children recover from diarrhea more quickly.  Isn't forced change always "for the children"?

Read the whole article and consider the claims and concerns these environmental groups have about genetically modifying our food supply, especially without any long term testing to be done on those who eat the GM foods. Then, after you read this article, go to the Kansas Milkmaid's online store and order a copy of "The Future of Food".   Watch both discs, particularly the interviews with scientists in the field of biotech agriculture.  It's enough to make your hair curl.........
