That's what its all about... They don't give a shit about how nutritious or safe the food is that they grow. THEY don't eat it.

Actually 98% of all wheat on earth is new wheat and there is no legacy wheat left. Check Dr. William davis Quoting: RosesOnFire I wonder if this has any relationship as to why it seems every second person lately thinks that they suffer from gluten intolerance. I thnnk a lot of it has to do with the fact that wheat is stock food, not human food. We are not made to eat it. |

Anyway, here's a bit of info that came of the FB discussion so far. The Office of the Gene Technology Regulator, supports the Gene Technology Regulator, and is a part of the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing. The Office was established under the Commonwealth Gene Technology Act 2000. This legislation sets forth a nationally consistent regulatory system for gene technology in Australia, so is a Federal Department.
