Subject: What's in your food? (FDA Dockets 00N-1396 and 00D-1598)


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.

The idea of not knowing what is in the food we eat is a horrifying reality. 
Are you and your families eating gene manipulated foods?  
Don't you want to know what is in the food you are eating?
What will it take for the gov't to realize that we are not a science experiment.  You and your families are eating these genetically engineered food products every day, don't YOU want to know what your families are putting into their bodies? 
IF SO, 
PLEASE help with the challenge at hand, please. 


Sincerely

Judith Trezza
