(36,843 posts)The labeling movement is very well funded by the organic industry seeking to sow irrational fear into the minds of consumers. The idea its nothing more than informative is pretty far afield from reality. Meanwhile all of those fears and irrational and unfounded predictions about the negative health effects of GMO just never panned out after decades of the reality accurately predicted by the scientific community actually did. The biggest reason nobody is going to click on those QR codes is nobody in significant numbers is buying into the nonsense any more. Its an even larger flop than Californias initiative in labeling everything as carcinogenic regardless of the actual risk. Too much information especially when it doesnt tell the whole story does not serve to enlighten the public.
