A label on your food isn't necessarily the truth. If you want want the truth, you really have to take that responsibility for yourself. The government is not good at labeling organic food[0], and there is no reason to believe they'll get GMO labeling right, since the same issues are involved.

- gregd 12y agoI am skeptical of nutrition labels, so what you're saying isn't lost on me. However, much like putting the nutrition labels (or ingredient lists for that matter) on food, GMO labeling is a starting point.
