Most people probably have never heard of it. The majority of the public isn't really aware what they are actually eating.

We've discussed it here many times. If there is one evil conspiracy, it's monsantos attempt to take over agriculture.

Yeah, my uncle(farmer in Virginia) has some nasty issues with them and their out of control plant genes spreading across the globe.
He is engaged in a legal battle right now. He knows he will lose, his farm and property will be next I am sure.

So if mindless sheep eat whatever corporate America puts on their dinner plates is it the corporations fault or is it the fault of the mindless sheep who believe what they are told and buy the latest garbage like good little sheep?

Take some responsibility and think for yourselves for a change.

So that explains all the fat chicks down here..you would think in a place where people wear "less" clothes, due to weather, those same people would be more concerned about diet and appearance. My bad, again..

Yes, of course but when Obama appoints Michael Taylor (former employee of Monsanto pushing to restrict organic farming) the sheep dont have much choice.

It would appear so considering the history of his latest appointment of Michael Taylor, as "Food Czar". The former Monsanto Executive worked closely for years with the FDA, passing legislation that restricts organic farming. As an attorney for agriculture giant Monsanto, Taylor helped find legal "loopholes" for manufacturers of DDT, PCB's, pesticides, aspartame and bovine growth hormone, all of which have been found to be harmful for human consumption.
