Yes!.....Cheerios to go non-GMO......

So... 25 pages and no one has bothered to look at the ingredients of Cheeri-hoes?

Since when did anyone make GMO oats?
Or is it the Corn/Wheat starch that you're supposed to be afraid of?
Or is it the ink on the box?

Seems like a stupid marketing ploy to me. And look at all the commentary it generated! :lol:
 
No one makes GMO oats, according to the article, so for the most part you are correct. The sugars and whatnot are what will be non-GMO.

The box will also say: May contain GMO.
 
you want to prey on the ignorance of the vast herd of hoi polloi, to advance your anti-GMO agenda without having to face the reality that they are NOT harmful, dangerous or even distinct from other crops without DNA tests.[/QUOTE]

if you cannot distinct GMO crops from non GMO crops then how did they get a patent?

Also, what's the big deal about putting something on the label? For me it's not a question of is it harmful or not... I would just rather not take my chances. basically, GMO just creeps me out and I'd like to know what I'm eating. If you don't care either way I don't see how a label effects you AT ALL. We've been getting by for thousands of years with grain that doesn't contain fish DNA.

That mentality is not only why Americans need health care, but why it will cost so much.

That is bullshit sophistry. You linked GMO to bad heath. No, stupid. Never has been a link. So immature this discussion form, from you.

My attitude is why we need heath care? What a bird brain.

The mentality is what needs attention, people say that same shit about soda, msg, fast foods and how it is their right. Eat your heart out as you pledge allegiance to the Status-Quo, I am suspicious.

you cant see it because the legislation of unhealthy food products is the worst thing ever and GMOS are used by the most irresponsible of food manufacturers. I just don't see the cognitive dissonance that is ever apparent in your attiude. I link GMO to bad food.

Have you ever eaten a fish sandwich? Two slices of bread, some tartar sauce, lettuce, etc? Guess what, you just ate grain DNA, fish DNA, lettuce DNA, maybe some onion DNA if you were adventurous.

I think I am going to have a bowl of cheerios.

To link it to bad food without evidence is cognitive dissonance.

So, leave the big words at home if you can't understand them.

I am suspicious of those that don't cherish the status quo. It was hard to get and hard to maintain. It is real. The rest is just handwaving.

You have an agenda that is clear. Look, don't start on the health tip. It can easily be linked to bad food i.e Burger King and Mountain Dew. I am saying there is a link not that it is responsible by itself. The argument against change must get hard.

Sticks and stones.....I will pretend you called me a name so you have more time to defend problems that don't exist. If you say GMO's are perfectly healthy I will leave you alone.

You are a gnat. A microbe. You are not bothering me. Such hubris. Hie thee to study, I say.

You have zero evidence about health, Mr Snotty. Now you don't need to pretend. :)
 
don't be a prick, you never agree with anyone or anything. You are a insult machine who knows how to read, the problem is you don't argue what is actually said or make the simple claim that proves me wrong in your mind at least.
