Anyone stop to think that everything is genetically modified? Is cross breeding a soybean plant with another which shows better resistance to drought evil?
The CSPI is behind this. The end result is more regulation, more cost to label which will get passed on to guess who?
Initiative Measure No. 522 is about the labeling of genetically-engineered food.
According to my voter’s pamphlet, the measure defines “genetically engineered” to mean “changes to genetic materials produced through techniques that directly insert DNA or RNA into organisms or that use cell fusion techniques to overcome natural barriers to cell multiplication or recombination.”
We’re not talking about cross breeding / genetic modification here. The measure deals with genetic-engineering.
