Define natural?? I don’t eat processed foods whose ingredient lust I can’t pronounce. The food I eat either came from the ground or had a mother. And the stuff that came from the ground is organic & non-GMO. The meat I buy is grass fed, free range, or wild caught fish. I don’t eat beef that’s been fed corn (GMO) because its high in omega 6, I don’t buy farm-raised fish because its filthy & laden with pharmaceuticals, and I eat free range chicken for the same reason.

Good for you.

In the meantime, why won’t your busybody buddies leave me and others alone? I’m sure if I had the time and inclination I could find many studies that would point to the safety of GMOs. And there is no doubt that GMO crops can be grown faster, using less water, land and pesticides.

So, to turn the argument around, what are ya’ll trying to do? Starve the little chill’ren?

i don't eat wheat, barley or rye since they contain poisonous substances which will kill me. Doesn't matter if they're GMO or just like they were when first developed up in the Golan 8,000 years ago.

Then, I hold off on all milk fresh from the cow, or even if it's been irradiated. Can't digest that stuff so it must be processed as acidophilous or cheese aged at least 9 months or yoghurt. The penalties for drinking fresh, whole milk are too numerous to mention!

My favorite starch additive for making wheat-gluten free bread is TAPIOCA ~ it's stretchy, just like wheat, but you have to process it to eat it since it comes with a couple of poisons ~ but they are easily removed unlike the poisonous gluten in wheat ~ which simply cannot be removed easily enough.

Someday I hope to see a wheat-gluten free wheat product on the market ~ it'll have to come about through some serious GMO of course.

Then there's beef ~ those poor animals have been bred and rebred so many times they're as far removed from an Aurochs as a tadpole. Better to hunt down your own wild pigs. They eat a natural diet!
