Travel warning USA By Lolita Tan
If you cook your own food there may still be a chance that you can avoid purchasing GMO (Genetically modified organism) but tourist rarely would have this option and need to rely for their food on restaurants and the like. Unfortunately the United States of America is one of the few countries on earth where the sale of GMO is rampant and there are even no requirements to label this kind of food. So anyone eating in a restaurant will almost for certain be hit with GMO. In most other countries the sale of GMO food is either outright banned or requires clear labelling. So in the USA “eat at your own risk”
A particularly nasty addition to the food supply is about to hit the market in the form of Bt sweet corn containing 3 genetically engineered strains which have never been before directly consumed by humans. Other notorious GMO food includes: Soy, Sugar, Papayas, Canola, Zucchini. Further dairy products can be dangerous since US cows are pumped with growth hormones which are otherwise banned in 27 countries.
