Ive had intelligent people tell me Roundup is killing people because its in the food. Roundup kills nearly everything green. Use it in your wheat field...you get a dead wheat field very quickly.
Do a little research on Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's). They are rather controversial. They are crops grown from seed that has had it's DNA monkeyed with by human beings. The #1 reason they do this is No Till Farming. They genetically engineer the seed to grow in Roundup. Then they use Roundup to wipe out everything else in the field. The result is only the modified seed grows, and the farmer never has to till or pull weeds.
Of course the downside is that you wind up eating food that has grown in Roundup.

Except applied roundup decays in 3 days. That’s why no one is dying from eating products grown with roundup. If you are a landscaper using roundup for hours on end every day and are not heeding the warnings about exposure, you are just asking for cancer, same as with any herbicide or insecticide.
