RahulRaRa 8yr I came upon the Chinese dietary guidelines when they were first released, and was so surprised to see this. I guess a strong government like China's has some benefits =) -

Riki I suspect there are some harmless GMOs, and harmful GMO food products.
My hunch is that Monsanto GMO corn with embedded pesticides is not great for human health.

DietID_TeamDietitians Totally agree @riki it's shocking how much of the developed world has banned GMOs
