Whats wrong with labeling it?

It means I won’t buy it. I’ll buy another product that doesn’t have that label even if it costs more.

Its called a free market. shocking I know

Yeah, I was in a government proposal meeting where almost all the business owners in the industry and in the meeting were women.

The speaker was so dumb as to say all the business owners should get their WMBE licenses.

Now, what good does it do to tell a bunch of women to get preferred treatment, if they all get it? Preferred from what?

Same dumb. Label all the GMO foods in the store. All the cereals, breads, chips, corn flour, tortilla shells, pastries and other items would be labeled GMO. So what good does that do if all are the same-same anyway with the added cost to label them?

Of course, we should not be eating these high loads of carbs all the time anyway. Just stay on the outer aisles most of the time, buy steroid free beef and chicken, not farmed fish - farmed is really bad for antibiotic load - whole milk and vegetables. Organic on some but if they have shells like bananas and avocados organic is kind of pointless.

Eat the GMO breads, chips and pastries for a treat. But basically they are all GMO.
