i remember in school being taught how wonderful america was because we had protections from industry which began at the turn of the last century brought about by books like 'the jungle' and so we could consume our hearts delight and now its come to the place highlighted below;


The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)’s stated purpose is helping farmers and ensuring the safety of the U.S. public when it comes to food, but lately they seem a lot more interested in helping the GMO industry than protecting Americans’ health.
To date, the government agency has given non-regulated status to at least 20 plants that have been genetically engineered using genome-editing techniques. Moreover, according to Sustainable Pulse, not one of the applications that were USDA-registered were referred for additional assessment or more details.
This lack of regulatory attention comes despite the significant differences that can be found in the traits and production methods of these plants compared to those that come via conventional breeding, according to new research from Testbiotech. Their report shows that the pattern of genetic changes that causes these differences differs dramatically from those in conventional breeding.
Genetic engineering uses technical interventions that bypass natural biological mechanisms, which means extreme caution should be used before making these foods available to the public. No one knows what the long-term effects of consuming them could be, so it doesn’t make sense to release them on the market completely unregulated...........https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-03-21-usda-collusion-with-gmo-industry.html
