      Looking at the stuff China puts in their food (like the actual instant noodles), definitely a red flag if even they ban it. Generally I look at EU for what's good/bad to consume though. It's scary how much stuff is banned there that's in everyday US products.

        I generally think that as well and so was surprised to read that they're planning to not label CRISPER fruits as such. "European Union’s Parliament and Council, the bloc’s governing body, reached a provisional deal in December to “simplify” the process for marketing plants bred through new genomic techniques, such as by scrapping the need to label them any differently from conventional ones." https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47271338 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47271338
