There is a large discussion about GMF because of the probability of some harmful effects, but, I think that the real harmful effects of the poison applications to control insects and fungi must be to have into account to make a real balance of the scope of this theme.

Thanks for the visit. I stay away from packaged/processed food, big-box grocery stores, fast-food joints, and most restaurants. Also, whenever possible I buy local organic–the fewer food miles traveled the better. But I don’t trust big-box lables that say “organic.” As you know, corporate only understands money (not outrage or complaint letters), so I fly under their radar and buy elsewhere with intuitive consciousness.
