Many of us in the US do not like these "foods" either, but they have undue influence in the govt agencies responsible for overseeing these "foods". They even try to get laws making it illegal to advertise that you do NOT use Frankenfoods. Europe has been balking at these (for good reason) and has been the target of some retaliation for it. Some of us cheer when we see research there that questions these foods. That work is certainly NOT going to be done here. Thank you, Europe. SK> but of course, makes the US economy all the stronger. In the above case, it benefits the BIG politically powerful companies the most, by far. The small guys are taking it in the %$*#.

Some of us here do that too. :-) We don't like things shoved down our throats any more than you do. SK> Sorry to digress... Likewise. -- rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
