In case you were in doubt about Monsanto's motives for producing GE crops:
A Monsanto official told the New York Times, October 25, 1998, that
the corporation should not have to take responsibility for the safety of its
food products.
"Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food,"
said Phil Angell, Monsanto's director of corporate communications.
"Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is
the FDA's job."
(GE = Genetically Engineered)
(FDA = Food and Drugs Administration)
