Now if the EU can keep GMO foods from being grown, imported or sold here we will be far better off. Monsanto is a disgusting form of American business, practicing it's own laws to sell non reproducing seeds/ sterile, seeds that have been genetically modified to resist its weed killer and pressuring governments with bribes or legal action to promote it's disgusting products. In the words of Ronald Reagan "Just say no to GMO foods and animals!"

Will they also give some thought to the chains of fast food resturants in Europe. Where products are prepared by school going kids, in 1-3 minutes with expired and disproportional ncredients. Which changed and changes the concept of healthy body.
