#2 Breanne Lamont on 16 Feb 11It's a good article but another point was brought to my attention by a former biology teacher about GMO's that isn't listed here. The idea that some GMO's can actually still retain some of the other genes from the organisms are mixed with can affect people with a food allergies. For example a tomato that is genetically modified with the genes of a nut potentially (and I think actually have) triggered allergic reactions in people who are allergic to nuts.
