I'm very skeptical of Monsanto being the only reason "hundreds of people" are born with serious health issues in China and Vietnam.

Anyway, the reason I don't take anti-GMO people very seriously is I get the same vibes from the anti-vaccination sort. Refusing to ingest GMO food is perfectly acceptable if you're worried about the health concerns, I would happily welcome more study - I just have trouble believing these crops pose a direct risks to humans. We don't worry about blood-borne diseases from plants. As I understand it, plant DNA is incompatible with our own. I'm not a scientist but I'm pretty sure what they modify can't modify us. I would worry about environmental impact - how these crops affect soil acidity or something else.

I want to stand with the anti-GMO people but it just comes off as blind fear. I'll support study of long-term effects but not much else ~
