Subject: What's in your food?


Dear Corporate and Government Leaders,

Genetically engineered food ingredients or crops should not be allowed on the market until: 

1) Independent safety testing demonstrates they have no harmful effects on human health or the environment, 

2) They are labeled to ensure the consumer's right-to-know, and 

3) The biotechnology corporations that manufacture them are held responsible for any harm.

I feel it's not possible to know the consequences the changes that GE foods can bring.  Since it also might be impossible to reverse back to our original basic food sources, I am appalled at the risks manufacturers and growers are allowed to take.  Thank you, Anita Ellababidy


Sincerely
