     How dare you.  How dare you feed me something that I don't even know 
what I'm eating.  I thought all ingredients had to be put on labels.  You are 
harkening us back to the days of Upton Sinclair and the days of big trusts in 
the 1890's.  You know, "Let the Buyer Beware".  Now you have let these 
maniacs from big chemical companies pollute my food supply without even 
requiring them to tell us.  If they put out GE foods you will only slap their 
wrists or maybe just say "naughty boys, don't do it again or I'll, 
I'll....I'll say, don't do it again".   
      I want to know what's in my food and what it is made up of.  GE food 
is NOT natural.  It is not organic.  It is not safe.  It is a potential large 
scale human disaster/famine waiting to happen.  And you can share the blame 
for much of what will be your legacy when GE foods contaminate real food 
throughout the world.  Contaminate the real food by "floating" their pollens 
to nearby natural foods fields.  Take GE out of the market.  At least make it 
absolutely imperative that any GE ingredients are clearly and Boldly marked 
on labels.  I don't want to eat them.  I don't want to be a guinea pig.  I 
don't want to be sick.  You can have that GE food.  I don't want it, my 
family doesn't want it, my neighbors, friends and the vast majority of the 
world doesn't want it.  Get rid of GE foods.
