The anti-GMO movement is so frustrating to me. I ask people why they are against it and all they can say is "pesticides". I say, ok, but aside from that mostly unrelated issue, what is actually bad about improving food? Crickets "It's just bad! Something something Monsanto!"

It comes from the same anti-science crowd that pushes things like crystals, sound healing, raiki, and astrology.

Yes, I live in the Boulder, CO area, how did you guess?

FTA:

> Of course, some people have raised health concerns around eating GMOs, but studies since these foods were introduced three decades ago do not show any harm. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration concludes there is not a health risk to eating GM foods currently on the market.
