Why Some People Are Afraid Of Genetically Modified Foods

One of my friends expressed that she thought Genetically Modified (or GM) foods are bad for you. I asked her why she thought this, and she said this "Don't you think putting something else's genetics in something like tomatoes would make the new topic something that's not a tomato?" I didn't know where she was going with this statement, so all I said was "No". I'm sure we went on a little further with it, but she basically didn't have any points to back up why she thought GM foods were bad.

Why Do People Think that GM foods are Bad?

Simply put, many people are afraid of the unknown. What they don't know, they perceive to be bad for them. So even if a plant is modified to withstand the cold, or resist pests, or to resist pesticides they believe they are bad for you because they don't know how they were modified to do so.

Could They Ever Harm You?

Allergic Reactions: Many people have deadly allergies to certain plants such as peanuts, but even though it's possible to modify crops to have allergic potential, it likely won't happen since proposals to incorporate such potentially allergenic components into crops will get turned down for that reason. So, no need to fear about that!

GM Foods Advantages

Aside from all the obvious advantages such as disease resistance, cold tolerance, and drought tolerance, you have:

Nutrition: Many third world countries rely on a single crop such as rich as a main source of food. This is a problem because normal rice doesn't have a lot of vitamin A, and that leads to the very real problem of blindness due to a lack of Vitamin A. A strain of rice called "Golden Rice" had been developed to combat this problem. The Rockefeller Foundation, which developed this rice, along with another strain of rice with a high iron content, planned to give seeds away for free to whoever asked for it, however, the funding on these two projects was not renewed because of Anti-GM protests in Europe. Really now?

Dinner Parties for Grown-Ups

You remember them, right? You invite over some friends, pass around hors d'oeuvres, have a nice meal on nice plates, and share scintillating conversations. No plates with licensed characters, pasta rings, chicken nuggets or discussions about talking trains allowed. Well, even parents are allowed to have fun once in awhile. It's time to pull out the cloth napkins and invite a few friends over. And while you're making plans, why not make the evening extra special with Match pewter barware?

Handcrafted in northern Italy using traditional pewtering methods, Match pewter tumblers, stemware, martini pitchers, and other pieces will add an air of sophistication to your next event. Match artisans seamless attach crystal vessels to pewter bases, achieving a look uniquely combining the traditional and contemporary. Whether you want sleek, modern highball glasses or stemware that recalls the romance of earlier times, you'll find what you're looking for in the Match pewter beverage service collection. As a busy parent, you may be thinking that pewter barware sounds like too much work. Fortunately, pewter (an alloy of tin, with copper added for strength) tarnishes very slowly; no special polishing required! Unlike other Match pewter offerings, you cannot put your stemware or other items in the dishwasher; the differing expansion/contraction rates of pewter and crystal make that unwise. However, you can simply hand wash them in warm water with lemon-free liquid soap, then dry thoroughly to avoid spotting. In this way, your glassware stays beautiful for years--perfect for display, and always ready for another party. Concerned about using a metal like pewter for beverages? Don't worry. Match pewter is completely lead-free, and approved by the FDA for food and beverages. Not sure that your budget will allow for the pewter wine bucket or a set of crystal-and-pewter balloon wine glasses? Match sells its beverage ware by the piece, so you can build your collection over time. It also makes a wonderful gift; toast new parents with a present of pewter champagne flutes! It's wonderful being parents, but it's also hard work. Every once in awhile, it's nice to revisit the people you were before your children came along. So hire a sitter, or send the kids off to Grandma's. Call some friends, find a new recipe and dust off the wedding china. Then celebrate life with a pewter beverage service from Match!
