AMERICANS EATING BIOTECH FOODS WITHOUT COMPLAINT

Johnson, Linda (2005) Americans eating biotech foods, but still clueless The Associated Press and THE GAZETTE, 3/27, p. 5d.

On the whole, Americans know little about what they buy at the supermarket. Today roughly 75% of U.S. processed foods-boxed cereals other grains products frozen dinners cooking oils and more-contain some genetically modified ingredients.

They do not know that food products be labeled as such, nor do they know that they are tested for safety. Nearly 2/3rds do not know if they are tested for environmental safety.

They may belief that raw meat (non-processed meats) has some chemicals that are biotech, but they would be wrong.

To date, no one has officially died do to biotech.
