i really haven’t heard a convincing argument against frankenfoods, whatever genetic material in them gets broken into individual aminos, sometimes unusual amino balances will have certain effects; none life threatening...like an overdose of tryptophan at a turkey dinner makes you sleep thru the ball game, etc...

the bad effects on non-franken plants thru cross pollination i can see, but there are remedies...

what is the big danger in frankenfoods that i’m missing? all the warning literature seems high on hyperbole and short on substance...

None of them go through testing on animals and humans, as far as I know, so it cannot be determined either way, without extensive research, what the effects are after consumption has already begun.
