This is getting insane. First it was milk, then peanuts, now wheat.
How long do we keep our heads in the sand and ignore these GM foods and what they are doing to us. What's next? Full food allergies? "I can't anything but ocean sand and iceberg melt" "Gee, I guess yer gonna die!" nb |

I refuse to give up my sushi!!! Now if I eat grains I get a stomach ache and bloating. They were definitely a problem for me, and I didn't know it. Was off them for about 6 weeks when I started trying them again 1 at a time. Pasta first, bad, potatoes, OK, but in small amounts, Taco chips at the Mexican place, very bad, corn on the cob, ok the first night, one ear, but not good one ear the next evening. That situation can be good fior yer waisteline!! has been 15 lbs good for me since April 1. Nan |

News to me. You know for a fact wheat or peanuts are NOT GM foods? I'd be amazed if they weren't. Yes, I'm wildly insane. Science is screwing with every facet of our food supply, but I'm wildly out of line to believe they are modifying our peanuts and wheat, which is still as pristine and as natural as when Jesus wore short pants. And the sky isn't blue and water isn't wet and there's no such thing as global warming. Hard to believe their are still ppl this freakin' naive/stupid. nb |

Just because *you* don't have the intelligence to understand what GM is and isn't, doesn't meant that those producing the GM items don't fully understand it, nor does it mean that more than a small subset of the population doesn't understand it. While you were busy studying your fantasy "holy book(s)", the rest of us were busy learning how the world actually works. |

There is a way to tell on the UPC stickers for fresh produce whether it is organic, or GMO but I can't remember which part of the numbers they are or what they are. |

Give the buyers what they want. I take no sides, not yet - I'm just a bystander on this one. And I think I'll be standing a long time. In the meantime, as one who tends to over-think and sometimes even enjoys it, I can't help but analyze all situations to find the positives and the negatives - and no matter how positive something sounds at the start, my belief is that the negative is sure to follow and is rarely seen by most till it's too late. I see the positives in food labeling. But there are negatives. Some have a positive look. For example, food labeling will open up new jobs as inspectors are hired to make sure the labeling is not false, and even more people will be hired to keep an eye on the inspectors, to make sure they're not lying. An entire industry of spies will be hired to ensure that the labeling is correct. People will be paid off to conceal what's really in the product. On the flip side of that same negative coin, others will be paid to reveal what's in the product, even if it means they're lying about it just to give that company a bad name and put it out of business. It's all corrupt, for god's sake listen to me, we are all doomed to corruption TJ - Chief inspector in charge of discipline - anti-corruption Unit 432, North Carolina Regimen, South East Regional |

Labels is the right direction. Corporations have fought label laws since the beginning of time. Corrupt people live by the phrase "Let the buyer beware". Labels will help slow down the corruption because false labeling will cost them more money from lawsuits. -- Enjoy Life... Nad R (Garden in zone 5a Michigan) |

Bingo, you believe food intolerances don't exist. Migraines may well be caused by diet for a lot more people than ever believe it. When I read the Atkins books because I was going to try it for weight loss I read his claims that migraines will go away. Uh huh, yeah sure. He makes all sorts of claims some of which are clearly false like "Atkins works for everyone". Yet since 1999 I have had one where I had a few debilitating ones per year before I became a part time low carber and wheat avoider. What triggers migraines in me I don't know but it does involve how I eat differently now. I'm far better at curing friends of snoring by talking them off either wheat or corn than I am at curing friends of migraines, though. I know exactly what triggers my loud snoring. I just know something in how I eat differently no longer triggers migraines. |

when i finally got the the right nurologist, he gave me a huge list of
things to avoid, then he said to add them back one at a time, i saw him because i had five migraines in three weeks, it was the same week nutrecrap came olut in new coke... I have never been able to add this one back, and beer was on the list, which i never drink because i am allergic to it, but i have been able to add back cheese, mushrooms, chocolate, red wine if limited, and dairy in general, if limited... also msg if very limited and sugar if very limited... this dr said migraines have four sources, food allergins, hormone components, genetic components, and visual stimulant components, my mother and sister both have them, so that covers genetic, i control the food allergens, and thank the stars i made it to fifty so the hormone component is less, and now that i am totally blind that is no longer a factor, sorry for rambling, Lee "Doug Freyburger" > wrote in message ... > Christine Dabney wrote: >> >> A lot of food allergies have not been reported as such in the past >> more than likely, cause there was no clear cut culprit.

Every stinking one of them caused them. And they only stopped when I stopped the meds. I still get them but not as frequently and they do seem to be tied to my cycle. Usually when I get them it is right at the start of it. Or during. |

this stuff about corn and cattle is so wrong, in fact if given an

monsanto isn't a business i would own stoc in, and the way cattle is
slaughtered has issues, but think about it, the person breeding/raising the ones that go to market must treat the breeding stock well or their production will be limited and they will lose money, this as silly as these animal rights fools having a fit to make farmers house their cattle in barns in the winter? do youu know what you get if you stall house cattle in winter? you get cattle with lung viruses that kill them off, overheating in winter is a huge issue for cattle, my father has scheduling birthing in all seasons, and december to feb allowes for the best birthing for the cows and calves, also shows him veryquickly which calves are weak, and which cows aren't mothering properly, Lee "Gorio" > wrote in message ... > > Storrmmee;1634628 Wrote: >> this stuff about corn and cattle is so wrong, in fact if given an >> oppertunity, they will bust into a cornfeild and strip it just like deer >> >> will, what makes cattle sick is when they are bred too close genticially >> and >> when they aren't properly vetted, Lee >> "notbob" lid wrote in message >> ...- >> On 2011-07-06, jmcquown wrote: >> - >> I hate to be the one to inform you, but I eat pretty much anything I >> want >> to >> and I'm not allergic to anything.
