How is that?

And what if babies end up in the hospital because of a mandatory label? (Granted, combined with NGO stupidity?)

Life ain't black and white. And that means what's right is often gray.

BTW, you do realize that the GMO labeling nonsense is all about organic companies using the government to help them foment the fear they've been working on so that their profits continue to increase, right?

You really think that's ok?
