    GM v. Organic

    I saw this on ctvnews.com and I couldn't believe so many people wouldn't buy genetically modified food.

    Some chickens are now born with such a big breast that they can't reproduce

    I guess as long as the steak is juicier and bigger

    I used to think that genetically modified foods would be a good thing: pest resistant plants requiring fewer pesticides.
    However, a few months ago I discovered that I am allergic to peanuts. If for example potatoes were genetically modified to include peanut genes I'd be *****ed!

    That depends if the potato contains the genes that cause your anaphylaxic reaction.

    I'll eat geneticaly modified foods, just as long as I know what genes they put into it.
    BTW, Thanks for all your help

    Somehow I don't think genes are going to be listed on packaging.

    If they were, I doubt anyone with less than five Ph.D.'s would be able to make any sense out of them.
