[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 236134, member: 412"] I'm glad to see someone else got around to posting this before I had a chance to. There are VERY FEW places in the lower 48 in which an animal isn't within relatively easy travel distance of GMO corn, beans, alfalfa, or a crop that's been killed w/Roundup to aid dry-down. There are some high-country elk, mule-deer, sheep, and Mt goats that stay high enough to be away from it most of the year but the Mt Goats are probably the only critters in NA that are year-'round GMO free. Everything else migrates to a "winter range" that puts them in contact w/GMO crops. Wild game is assuredly leaner than domesticated animals but thinking that it's "cleaner" or "chemical-free" is pretty short-sighted IMO. In an attempt to answer the OP's original question, "Who do you believe?" I can say I really don't know who to believe. Too much $$ both directions for anything to be unbiased. Anti-GMO looking for the big class-action lawsuit payday. Pro-GMO entities not wanting to pay out class-action suits nor lose their annual "technology fees" of their GMO seeds. Here's one thing I definitely believe: The world is well above it's carrying capacity of humans sans GMO crops. If my options @ 44yrs old are to die in say 6mo of starvation or die in my 70's, 80's, or 90's from a buildup of glyphosate, I'll gladly take the extra time. [/QUOTE]
