the dangers of GMO conglomerate products

The additive azodiacarbonamide is "FDA approved" and "perfectly safe", but it also breaks down into urethane, and it's absent from the bread sold in European markets.

When I was a kid (before we had cars - grin) I applied at a fried chicken place - while taking the tour I asked how the chicken was preserved - the franchisee beamed at my interest
"Formaldehyde" he replied -
It had shown no negative effects as well............

Through first hand experience; it's extremely clear that Punaweb is Rob Tuckers local political platform and when his position is challenged through merit, he'll block the member. When his position was challenged via the unacceptable nature of flooding the natural diamond market with man made diamond knockoffs as it would be a clear act of counterfeit marketing. That compared to Gm foods allowed to flood the natural food market as a natural food enjoying the same value as a natural food is somehow not an act of counterfeit marketing. That is a clear conflict of business ethics. When those here were given the opportunity to realize the conflict in ethics - they chose to block the messenger... Wao Nahele Kane. There's no room on this forum for anything that would point out the application of bent counterfeit marketing ethics with regard to our food market. Thats the one point of merit that the great and powerful OZ wants to sweep under the carpet. -Wao Nahele Kane
Don't worry Rob, I have no desire to partake in your romper room forum anymore. Take a good hard look at your ethics compass.
If I wanted your opinion, I'd frame it for you!

Arsenic was actually used as an herbicide - not as rat poison by the plantations.
Richard is anything but a lazy farmer. Starting with few personal resources he worked his butt off on leased land saving until he could buy his own farm land in Hamakua. There he has constantly innovateD while raising a family and being deeply involved in a variety of community organizations and boards. By the way - he himself has NO GMO products. He simply sees that in some cases they are the best, least invasive and safest alternative.
When you speak of his destroying the land you have no idea of what either he or any of the other farmers are doing on the island. They actively save the soil - it is their primary life line. All this talk of destroying the "aina" is so ill informed and intellectually dishonest as to be beyond comprehension. Just look at your comments on Richard - because he defends use of GMO products you have jumped to the (incorrect) assumption that he cultivates such crops. From there you have jumped to the (again incorrect) assumption that GMO crops destroy the land. A little (even a tiny little) investigation would have turned this information up. YIKES!
