    Default genetically modified foods...

    I just got done reading a science fiction novel with a large basis in genetically modified foods. It really kind of freaked me out, and got me researching this.

    And what I found freaked me a bit more.

    Anyways, long story short, I'm going to start buying more non-genetically modified foods. It shouldn't be too hard, since a lot of what I buy is mostly non-GM anyways (lucky me for being an organic foods kinda person).

    Here are two sites I found that I'm going to start referring to in order to find non-GM foods, if you are interested. Part of the problem is if a food has GMOs in it, it doesn't need to be labeled in the US, and there is no real 3rd party to research if a GMO is safe or not. At least, that's what I've read and what I've found.

    Anyone else know anything about GMOs?

    can't genetically modified foods be organic? or is it rare to see that?

    From what I understand, a certified organic product cannot intentionally include a GMO. Although corporations are trying to change that.
