Title: Question on GMO's
Post by: val on August 24, 2008, 03:37:53 pm

Hey guys,

I have a question that on GMO's that I was hoping that someone could answer for me  :angel:

Is it illegal if a consumer is not aware that they are purchasing a GMO product? Does the product have to be clearly labelled as a GMO product for it to be legal?
