How can a company in the food business or chemistry business bury a news story?

There are only about a dozen or so news network and wire services big enough to “bury” a news story, and Monsanto isn’t one of them.

By the way, just how does the FDA or anybody else determine that

.0000000005

part of a thing is not harmful to humans but

.0000000010

of that thing is harmful to humans?

And that if

.000000001

part of a thing crosses some threshold of danger, that

.000001000

parts of that thing is much more dangerous?

Those who pooh pooh the idea that this stuff is harmless are only kidding themselves. Bio-engineering of our food sources has led to an epidemic of illnesses that were at one time rare.

Why am I not dead

We spray this stuff anywhere you want total kill of any vegetation and surely it’s impossible not to inhale some.

Calling Bs here.

And I like my Honey Nut Cherrios not giving that up!!

One of my new favorites: Chocolate crème filled Oreo thins.
Their regular ones have been going down hill for a long time now.

Not really. We live on the surface of a volcanically active planet with a molten core directly exposed to a G2V class star only 93 million miles away. The crust of our planet is loaded with various heavy metals and radioactive elements and covered with gobs of plant and insect life that produce thousands of different bizarre chemical structures.

It's a small miracle we can even get up in the morning.

Foodbabe doesn’t know the first thing about chemistry, biology, medicine, health or nutrition. She’s just an idiot shakedown artist.

Glyphosate has been tested to be safe at doses thousands of times higher than is reported.

FYI, if you are a plant, glyphosate affects only specific plant hormones.

Else more lefty environmental Fear, Uncertainty, Distortion. There are at least 6 other manufactures of glyphosate, but Monsanto (who is or was bought by Bayer) is a long-time favorite whipping horse of the environmental left.

To listen to them glyphosate is poured on plants at full strength without any regulation.

Even the chemical hating EPA can’t find a problem with glyphosate even though they’ve been trying for about 40 years.

First, if you eat any of the foods on this list, you are going to die. Probably from diabetes or other obesity-related disease. But you are going to die. If fact, if you eat any food on any list you are going to die.

Second, the dose makes the poison. Just because you consume a small amount of something is not necessarily an indication it will harm you.

Third, this stuff sounds almost as dangerous as di-hydrogen monoxide. We all know how many millions die from overexposure to that each year.

Glyphosate is a pesticide.

That stuff is probably full of that Dihydrongen Monoxide(Hydroxic acid) too.

And people wonder why we get cancer.

I wonder how anyone who never passed high school chemistry ends up pontificating on the internet about chemistry with millions of followers.

I can find any chemical you want in your blood if we measure in the right amounts. The dosage makes the poison just like it has since the beginning of time. The difference between a drug that helps you and a poison that kills you is the dosage.

Benzene is much more toxic than glyphosate yet it is found in the air you breathe, the water you drink and in eggs, bananas and meat. Let me know when you find glyphosate in these foods measured in parts per million, then I'll worry. I think there's a better chance of food babe getting a PhD in chemistry than there is of glyphosate appearing in dangerous quantities in our food.
