Oh wow, talk about bring misinformed, Lyra.

@someguy111  
I know… I was telling that BP that thought they where not in the UK they they are in fact there.

*or at least says…

@Prof.NightJack  
Unless your country has crazy laws, if you eat something that is organic of at least says no GMO’s you can avoid them.

@Ripple_Shine  
Yup, thanks Obama for passing the “Monsanto Protection Act” as it’s commonly called.

@misnamed  
just search GMO dangers, GMO side effects, etc. There’s plenty of info.

@Background Pony  
They are in the UK.

@someguy111  
What’s more, if you get sick as a result of eating such food, you cannot press charges against the food company. Meaning that you do not have the legal right to health as a result of eating food you don’t even know you’re eating, they can poison you, without having to tell you, and no court will let you seek recourse.

@someguy111  
I’m sorry if I sound skeptic, but that’s so vague and generic I don’t really buy it. Maybe you could point out some study or research or other source of information?

@misnamed  
Oh you know, diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, obesity, etc.

i dont like monsanto but im all for gmos

@someguy111  
That’s fucked up, I’m glad I’ve never seen them over here in the UK

@someguy111  
What sort of health effects?

@Background Pony  
They make Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO’s) otherwise known as “frankenfood”. They do it to increase crop output as well as grow animals to larger sizes, however the health effects on both the people eating them as well as the environment can be dangerous.

Oh little-known fact: Thanks to bribes “lobbying” in congress from these types of companies, GMO’s can be put in your food and are not legally required to be listed as such as long as the whole product itself is not GMO, so if something is made with 99% GMO’s they can sell it and not have to tell you.

What’s Monsanto and why does everyone hate it?

Sounds good, fuck Monsanto.

buh- but Monsanto could genetically engineer hoerses to ponies :’(

Good to see people are finally opening their eyes and fighting back. Also inb4 huge debate in the comments.
