Food,  GMO

The GMO crossroads….

….at least that’s what nationally-renowned food blogger Dr. Joseph Mercola calls it.

Vermont won it’s battle recently to require that Big Ag label all genetically modified products.  The food giants…led by the grocers’ association…has been financing and campaign to block labeling and now is placing its money on politicians in Washington (always a safe bet).

The House is considering a bill that would ban individual states from requiring the GMO label and Dr. Mercola thinks this is the fight that counts.

I’m somewhat less optimistic that Big Ag (and their buddies in the USDA) can be stopped.  As the old saying goes….when it comes to government, there are too many ways to “skin a cat”.
