"A 2015 study by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency found glyphosate in 30 percent of 3,200 food products. Similar studies have found glyphosate exceeding maximum residue limits (or MRLs) in Cheerios, beer, and wine." It has also been found in honey, soy sauce, oatmeal, bagels, organic eggs, potatoes, non-GMO soy coffee creamer, tampons, infant formula, and even breast milk (that's the stuff coming out of a human). Not only is it in animal feeds, it's in processed foods. It's being passed through animals and plants. Even if you believe the claims that ingesting it won't give you cancer, it will probably screw with your gut microbiota. The US MRLs are much higher than countries such as Japan, the EU, Canada, Australia, and Taiwan. Are our scientists just way better at sciencing, and know something these other countries' scientists don't? Or is it more probable that Monsanto has significant influence with the US's 992-billion agro industry, government, and FDA? It's also possible that some countries have artificially low MRLs, in order to gain a competitive advantage with countries that have stricter limits on imports. But lowering MRLs means using less herbicide/pesticide, which wouldn't produce as high or reliable a yield. In order to maximize product, more herbicide/pesticide must be used more frequently (such as with desiccation), and that means you can't lower the MRLs - you can only raise them, to avoid regulatory issues from affecting your crop yields, and subsequently the profits of agro business. At the least, we know the FDA can't keep up with import testing (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3297498/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3297498/) Finally, from a scientific standpoint, all of this is based on animal testing. No human testing is done, so we really don't know what long-term exposure will do to humans.
