Stop the hyperbole if you can
Think beyond your zealotry. Sugar is sugar. It is cryatallized out of hot water and has no trace of DNA or protein in it so it's not "genetically modified" material regardless of the plant source. It's essentially the same strategy as isolation of oil from corn, soybean, canola and cotton. No protein, no DNA, no "biotech." The sugar is the same. As for your science sources regarding the evils of an herbicide (a chemical that affects plant enzymes, not mammalian), you won't get the truth from front groups for the organic industry. If you've been paying any attention to the recent food-borne causes of DEATHS and ILLNESS (my feeble attempt at hyperbole) they are all linked to manure - the E. coli and Salmonella based "troubles" you may have heard about. You should be worried about contributing to habitat destruction and your carbon footprint. Drop organic for high-intensity agriculture.On As GMO sugar beets sneak into the food supply, citizens fight back posted 1 year, 3 months ago 5 Responses
