I have decided to stop eating any genetically engineered foods, but I can't seem to find out which foods are GM. Does anyone know where to find a list?
 
You cannot know for certain. Even if you grow it yourself. The seeds you plant may have been GMO or cross polinated with a GMO plant. Sources for foods you buy can come from anywhere. You could just stop eating.

How about if you only eat weeds? I don't think they're genetically engineering those yet.

Still the problem with blowover from the next field where the farmer DID plant GMed seed. Better stick with smoking that weed instead of eating it ;)

Sominabitch--ain't nuthin' safe no mo?

How about insects? Can we eat crickets without the fear of GM shit?*



*By "GM shit" I don't mean Chevy, but most Chevy's suck, especially Cavaliers--I mean, what a crappy piece of carp.

Better stick to minerals. Bugs eat seeds ... nuff said.

I once owned a 1971 Chevy Vega that got approximately 300 miles to the head gasket. It was one of the first US autos to have an aluminum engine block, and GM didn't do their sums right in designing it. I got so good at replacing the head gasket in that car that I could do it from scratch in 8 hours. And if you scratched the paint, you could see the Iron City Beer labels underneath.

Fine, nuthin' but rocks from here on out. Luscious, organic rock.*

And in regards to the Vega: Hahahahahhahahahahahahahaha.



*Wait, doesn't the definition of organic require something to be carbon-based? I'm so fucking confused.
 
Plants have been engineered for thousand of years.

This is interesting:

We need a new revolution –
a Doubly Green Revolution


Significant progress is being made. Chinese scientists, with funding from the Rockefeller Foundation, have produced a new rice variety using tissue culture, called La Fen Rockefeller, that is providing farmers in the Shanghai region with 15 to 25 per cent increases in yield.

I Also read or saw somewhere on the net that the genetic tampering will revert after a few plant generations . Thats if the seeds germinate at all.

I agree, good thing I wrecked mine.

Isn't selective breeding a form of genetic modification which has been used to produce various fruit and vegetable strains for a very long time? Or is this in reference to lab work?
