Never said it was, just a personal viewpoint. But just because there are no long term studies doesn't mean that's safe. In the U.S., we assume products are safe unless proven otherwise. In Europe, they have to prove they are safe before they are available. GMO manufacturers and scientists submit limited studies on their products to the USDA which is why they are OK in the US, but rejected in Europe. To your point, yes people have always had allergies but I can only speak for myself. I didn't have them as a kid, didn't have them as a teenager or young adult. I developed them in the '90s and now they're gone by eliminating wheat. My wife also had the same experience. Just a data point, but to discount it out of hand isn't much of an argument.
