foul, Obie:
With about 80%+ of corn (maize) grown in the USA being gmo and something less than half of that going to ethanol the non-organic corn and corn not labeled "non-gmo" IS gmo. Which means most of the corn in beef, pork, eggs, chicken, and turkey IS gmo and the corn in corn chips, corn bread, corn grits, and corn whiskey IS gmo.
And, of course, that does not address pollen drift ...
