Monsanto, that bastion of genetically modified food products that once resembled actual vegetables, is going to be selling it's newest creation, a genetically-modified (GM) sweet corn containing Bt toxin, designed to protect the plant by rupturing the stomach of any insect that feeds on it. Monsanto claims the toxin will break down before the corn makes it to your dinner table, but rats fed with the GM corn showed organ failure, and the toxin has been detected in the bodies of pregnant women.
Unmarked, unlabeled, and untested on humans — with toxins built right into the plant’s DNA. Which is to say, they are probably getting a great deal on this poison food and passing along the death to their consumers, without even a warning label.
Yeah.
Why do I not shop at Walmart? Because they put profits over people, every single time. If Walmart is doing something that appears to be for the public good then there's an ulterior motive there that we're not seeing.
Shop at Walmart and bring home some ruptured organ death tonight!
