Hi guys. Today it's about my introduction to my thesis. Ugggggh. I never get it right but I'll keep trying until I get tired of falling on my pen. :) Is that like a warrior falling on his sword? If it is he wouldn't have to many times to do that. :)
Anyway, here goes. If you guys have so good advice after reading this, please pass it on. I'll listen.

The Effect of Genetically Modified Food.

As recipients of our food supply from strangers, society has never worried about the food we eat. We never worry about the purity of what we eat because we, generally, leave it up to our Government agencies to direct our health affairs in the right direction. The direction of safety giving what we eat the stamp of approval for human consumption.
We look to the farmer to feed his livestock only natural healthy grains that carries no enzymes or bacterial substitutes. We, (Society), see our fruits and vegetables as natural as the air we breath.
Then there's now. We see food being plumped and prodded to make it larger and giving it a longer shelf life. We see chemical companies becoming involved in seedlings that grow more at a shorter length of time and all to serve the millions of people around the world who clammer for food and more food. But, have we forgotten to question and try to understand why we've moved to Genetically Modifying Foods, the issues of society's health brought on by this modification and the moral dilemma we face as a matter of serving these foods to our nation and developing countries around the world?
