For me, I'm more worried about weedkiller residue in my food than the altered genes themselves.
Roundup works by being absorbed into plants. The altered genes allow for the plants to be sprayed with Roundup, but survive. Why would I want to eat weedkillers? No matter what the label says, it can't be good for you.
I'll stick with organic, non-GMO food whenever possible.
The weed killer is sprayed when the plants are small after that the plants keep the weeds from growing by blocking any sunlight.
