Click on the link above. This is a great article about GMO plants, how they have come to be and their environmental impact. Have patience the link takes a minute to open as it is from an e-zine, but it is worth the read.

Find Out What Produce has the Most Pesticides
Thought I would share a couple great websites:
This is the Environmental Working Group's ranking of produce regarding pesticides. Remember that of the 70,000 chemicasl that are out there only 10,000 are regulated. The average fruit has at least 8 different chemicals on it and there has been no testing how those chemical interact with each other. You are the experiment.

The Non-GMO Project: Use this website to find products that have been verified as non GMO.
