I thought glyphosate was only a danger for people applying it (something that's been denied for a long time) Also as far as I know it goes into the weeds it kills, not in the plant you want to keep (is your food) ? Else it would also die ?

I heard that farmers ‘spray off’ the crop to kill it to make harvesting easier.
