I admit I don’t trust Monsanto either. The crops resistant to the chemicals are called “Roundup Ready” (as in “Roundup” the pesticide). I too wonder how much of that pesticide makes it into our food. I won’t do any protesting. Usually there’s a lot of ‘earth-worshipping’ types there. Just not my style, but this issue is not just a lefty concern.

When no one has the answer to the important questions, you know that the answers are not good. We already know that the pesticides and fungicides eventually work their way into the drinking water because rural farmland usually has their own wells. Round-up may not be as harmful as some of the other pesticides that are sprayed on the crops. I don’t know about that, either.
