Maybe it's just Monsanto I don't like because of their practices but it would be nice to have more long term unbiased studies out there. Also, I am completely for labeling so I can be the one choosing if I want to ingest gmos or not. I worry about the effect these genetically modified products have on our soils though. Monsantos seeds can only be used for one season and then you need to keep buying more, there's possible crop contamination for farmers fields that don't want gmo seeds, the weeds could become resistant and create super weeds possibly just like superbugs have occurred.

Here's a good little article

Exposing The Truth about GMOs

I think you need to do some more reading - and not just from the anti-GMO people. Potentially the blindly pro-GMO people aren't going to give very useful information either. What you need to read are the ones who stand somewhere in between. The skeptics of both sides. They throw that facts your way, and you can decide from there what you want to support. Watch my video, and Ulic's video to start, and go from there.

If you read nothing but propaganda, you aren't going to be able to see the full picture.
