[Helie · Rating 2 out of 5]

While I enjoyed the information and history about BSE/Mad cow disease, I found the arguments about GM food very simple-minded and unimpressive. Most of them were predicated on the idea that people eat meat grown in terrible conditions, therefore eating crops with questionable origins should be no problem.
