Is GMO is so good, why wouldn't the "manufacturer" proudly label and advertize these products as such? Clearly a bit of advertizing legerdemain would have Mr. and Mrs. Consumer clamoring for GMO products, no?

Or perhaps that might expose the advertisers to some truth-in-advertising inquiries? 'Tis a puzzlement.

I'll post this again for your general knowledge and edification.

The FDA only requires labeling if a food raises legitimate questions related to nutrition or safe use. People who understand the science involved know that there are no legitimate questions regarding the nutritional content and safety of GMO food.

Labeling mandates based solely on an alleged consumers’ "right to know," rather than on a product’s measurable characteristics, is in violation of the Constitution.

You are not allowed to demonize a product, or to create fear about a product, unless you can prove that there is a problem with the nutrition or safety of that product.

Instead of demanding that government force industry to label their products even more than they already do, perhaps you should simply buy organic food products. The organic industry will appreciate you paying more for products that deliver absolutely no additional benefits.

Or, you could simply admit that you're just another big government conservative who wants the government to exert more control over industry to protect you from the things you don't understand.
