To the Food and Drug Administration:

I am strongly in favor of mandatory safety testing for genetically
engineered food.  

I also want the right to know if food has been genetically engineered, which
requires clear, large and true labelling  when "food" has been genetically
engineered.

My wife and I want the ability to choose pure foods.  I  believe this is the
right of all Americans, and it is your responsibility to protect this right.
