Welcome to Gaia! ::

-cough- I'm sure someone has pointed this out already but Potatoes are not fully vegetables they're mostly starches. c: Anywho I agree. It's sad that people opt for the Gmo foods because they're slightly cheaper. If you grow your own food it ends up being much cheaper, but most people don't have enough time for that. :

I really don't have a problem with GMOs; it's just that these companies are able to patient their GMOs. Take for example, a farmer buys Monsanto's seeds. Those seeds grow and pollenate. The wind carries that pollen into, say, your farm, and you did not but Monsanto's seeds. That pollen fertilizes your crop and now your plant has the gene. Then, for some reason, Monsanto tests your crop, and it comes out positive for their genetically modified gene. Monsanto can now take you to court and sue the living crap out of your farm, because you are not authorized to be growing their GMO. Also, take into account that farm make less than $30,000 a year, but they can sue you for millions of dollars. Even if you win, you still have to pay a large amount for lawyers and court fees.
