Usually, Stickers are Free

"Unfortunately, “GMO free” and similar claims are not legally or scientifically defensible due to limitations of testing methodology.  In addition, the risk of contamination to seeds, crops, ingredients and products is too high to reliably claim that a product is “GMO free.”"
                                              -- The Non-GMO Project's own website

Fortunately, they'll still accept millions of dollars a year for selling meaningless "GMO Free" stickers to corrupted food distributors. And fortunately for you the consumer, they'll still accept millions of your tax-free donations so they can be comfortable while they bullshit the public.

Why doesn't this generation believe in snake oil?
I suspect it's because nobody wants to look like they're uninformed or out of the loop. Conspiracy theories are becoming the Pokemon of the 21st century, & you've gotta collect 'em all. So naive people (I call them trubeleievers) hear one semi-convincing argument & jump right up to swallow the hook without another thought.

I really don't mean to be harsh to those people. EVERYBODY goes through a naive stage. It's life. NOBODY knows everything, & the best any of us can do is learn as we go.
And I don't mean that conspiracy theories should all be generically dismissed as hoaxes. You'll find plenty of conspiracy chowder slopped all over this very blog.
But in all cases, I insist that research be conducted following the scientific method & rules of logic. Faith is not enough. Claiming something is "good" or "bad" is not enough.

"But they're giant corporations who are willing to destroy the planet with their lies for profit"
If we're going to base our opposition to a movement based on lack of proof & evidence of a profit motive, then look directly at The Non-GMO Project. They ADMIT they can't prove anything, & they only thing they do is profit. (I haven't proven it yet, but I suspect that their true business model is the world's most successful sticker company.)

Of course the immediate response of the truebeliever is "At least they're doing SOMETHING!"
So let's apply that same argument to a witch doctor or priest. The rain dances & prayers are doing SOMETHING. But that's only the cause.....what's the effect? Well, one effect is that they make a lot of money. Another is that you give them your money & faith for dances & prayers. And sure, there's the whole 'raising awareness' aspect, but that only serves to grow their cult. Are the foods now GMO free? The question doesn't even make sense....GMO is not a substance. GMO simply means "genetically modified organism", like a carefully-bred rose, a seedless banana, or the entire Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

FUN FACT: EVERY BANANA YOU & EVERYBODY ELSE HAS EVER EATEN IS A GMO PRODUCT.

I'll be writing soon about the Organic Conspiracy....stay tuned
