against Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) used that make foods 'unsafe'.
Protesters say despite the claim made by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1992, there is compelling evidence that GMOs are not safe and labeling foods as organic does not guarantee that they are GMO-free.
Monsanto, a very powerful agricultural biotechnology corporation which patents and sells genetically modified seeds, throws its weight behind the federal government to keep GMO labels from being placed on food products. This could explain why unlike countless countries, the US refrains from passing any rules on banning the GMOs.
