Funny post! Organic farmers are allowed to spray Bt on their crops...the same stuff that is in the seeds. Also, commonly found in most soils around peoples houses....it is everywhere! And it is not a mix of virus, bacteria and insect parts...it is a bacteria.

Correct. BT is a natural substance. They started using it as a natural safer alternative to the organophospates (really nasty stuff) that were used to control corn borers and rootworms in corn production.
When I farmed I used these organophosphates because that is all that was out there.
It may kill me yet!

Oh that’s effin’ hilarious!
There is a difference between non GMO and organic, but you are so dang funny I think you need to eat some more GMO.
Wonder why all of these folks over 50 in Asia and America are getting a new Aids like disease where immune systems collapse.
Bt is just the start, but please, keep munching away.
