GMO Corn is actually good for you
A recently completed meta analysis of 6000 different peer reviewed scientific studies conducted over the last 21 years from all over the world show that GMO corn is higher yield and less toxic than non-GMO varieties:

Grandpa was a big advocate from the 1950s right up to the day he died. Looks like science supports his position.

He was a farmer with a masters degree in chemistry with an agricultural specialization. Finished his Master's degree during the depression and than after WW2 started full time with Canada Packers and ultimately ended up as VP there. He was heavily involved in starting their salmon farms out west and their canola processing plants. That's the Canadian side of the family. The other side were chicken farmers that immigrated from The Netherlands during the late 40s.

They taken corn and gotten it to taste like a bland bowl of sugar. Keep your peaches and cream and give me the old type yellow corn anyday.

I heard an interview with an ex-Greenpeace member now turned GMO proponent. He said that the whole eco-warrior social justice crowd that insists we look at the real science surrounding climate change is itself choosing to ignore the real science surrounding GMOs, because it doesn't fit their agenda. He said when you look at it scientifically, the anti-GMO argument falls apart.

GMO-the real impact of it, we will know in.......maybe 20-30 years.
Until then-everyone approaches this topic as he/she sees it fit.
Meanwhile-we should ask the Monarch Butterflies ,if the GMO is actually contributing to their dismay(so i heard)

Just plant milk weed. It is what they eat.
Take the warning labels off. Darwin will solve the problem.
