We dont’ want GMO’s but we do insist on ‘artificial’ sweeteners.,

I agree but look up Monsanto in Wikipedia and you will find the following:

The company's first product was the artificial sweetener saccharin

1985: Monsanto purchased G. D. Searle & Company for $2.7 billion in cash. In this merger, Searle's aspartame business became a separate Monsanto subsidiary, the NutraSweet Company. CEO of NutraSweet, Robert B. Shapiro, became CEO of Monsanto from 1995 to 2000.

Thanks for the response and info.

The REAL PROBLEM is that the public is mostly ignorant of the true facts. In the U.S. all food is ‘genetically modified’.

All ‘seedstock’ that was not ‘modified’ is locked away in a huge vault in the Arctic Wastelands.

Take potatoes , for instance.(referencing the picture of McDonald’s fries at the beginning of the thread).

Potatoes were not ‘white’ originally. They were not even round and smooth.
