Is the Franken in the foods supposed to make any difference in the kind of oil they put out? Until somebody shows that, I’ll eat Frankencorn oil as soon as normal corn oil.

You're welcome to my share.

there's a reason up to 30 countries have banned GMO seed/food in their countries.

And a reason people/states have such a hard time in the US - Monsanto is an American chemical company and they own our politicians. Indeed many politicians, when leaving office, go to work for Monsanto and many Monsanto people get jobs in such places as the FDA -

Enjoy your chemicals. It's a free country.

Your share of what. Of hysterical knee jerking?

There might be valid farming reasons to avoid growing Frankencorn, such as the ease of contaminating the genetic stock of normal corn which is then brought under the patent jackboot (a lose-lose), but you cannot produce evidence that the Franken in the corn gets you more than a hardier plant, and certainly not a modified oil content. And even the Frankenfood has to be compared with not being able to get any food because the normal corn was not productive enough.

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...
