  • i used to be angry about gmo food but is it really unsafe?? it seems like its safe... it seems awesome...

  • The world's most gorgeous scientist!!! :)

  • Comment removed

  • Apparently you have to be ugly for anyone to take you seriously. Sometimes im ashamed to be a man.

  • Great informative video from a scientist who has compassion for all humankind! We should take time to research what it is that is affecting our lives in order to have a longer, healthier one. I just don't understand why any person would think that what this woman says is absurd or incorrect. You should do the research for yourself & see what she has seen with the way big corporations do business. People should be grateful for the info that this young woman has brought before your eyes. Peace.

  • @drla02 The most beautiful and informed scientist on earth.

  • Would love for you to have my babies

  • The B in BSE (mad cow disease) is Bovine, the cattle growth hormone invented and patented by the big M.

    The reason science gives to it makes you cry, prions! While the so called Prions are in fact residu of Bovine injections. But who would dare fight Monsanto over mad cow disease, that they in fact created. Global pollution with alluminum ocide, because M has a patent on seeds that can withstand alluminum contaminated soil. It is a global war of us against them. Wish I had better weapons.

  • Watch 2 videos right here on youtube

    The World According to Monsanto and

    The Future of Food

  • lets rearrange the letters monsatano.

  • Rearrange the letters in Monsanto and you get Saton Mon.

  • AMAZING!

  • To hell with Monsanto! Love Iowa.

  • FARMERS ARE STILL SPRAYING AGENT ORANGE IN CITRUS GROVES!!!!!

    it just goes by a different name now, but it is STILL AGENT ORANGE!

    THE ORANGE JUICE YOUR DRINKING RIGHT NOW IS AGENT ORANGE JUICE! I KNOW I WORK IN GROVES!

    99% of farmers should be held criminally responsible as well, they have no consideration for their workers or the people they are poisoning.

  • @meatisdelicious what the fuck insect poisons are you referring to? There are no insects injecting their poisons into the food we eat, at least NOTHING compared to the amount of poison being absorbed into the plant from what were using to grow them. You probably started feeling shitty because your body wasnt bringing in any new gmo poisons. this gave it a chance to detox itself and release all the poisons stored in your body and into your bloodstream, this happens alot when people do detoxes

  • SEARCH THIS

    ----Emergency! Pathogen New to Science Found in Roundup Ready GM Crops?--- "USDA senior scientist sends “emergency” warning to US Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack on a new plant pathogen in Roundup Ready GM soybean and corn that may be responsible for high rates of infertility and spontaneous abortions in livestock "

  • I believe Argentina banned roundup weed killer due to too many miscarriages and  cancer rates associated with it in their country... can someone pls confirm?

  • Shelly, Roundup gives me severe headaches probably you too. Breathing problems too. it's said to be the monsanto seeds and roundup. Millions of us have this problem.

    Take them to small claims for the maximum then file continuances on and on. Crush them until they release the seed patents. NO FOOD MONOPLOIES.

  • @biospharms Well, I don't think you're supposed to eat the Round-up, you spray it on the plants first. This could be the root of your problem.

  • you maybe a good slave to the government.!THE POINT IS MONSANTO IS PURE EVIL...

  • . . . . . fuck . . . . .

  • If evil had a name, it would be Monsanto.

  • @corvus1970 it IS Monsanto

  • jammie ?

  • So what about me, I eat their food and use their products and I am verry healthy. When I went to an organic colledge my health de creased dramaticaly, I belive this is down to the insect poisons left inside the vegetables due to there ben little or no pest control. Am I realy that bad if I give an honest opinion on a matter withough letting silly emotional obsesions take over? I actualy want to be a Monsato Bio-chemical technition some day.

  • You should learn how to spell first, before becoming a "technition".

  • @xsara123 All I have to do is use my spell cheque on the computer, is that all you can come up with is infantile insults and smug arrogant comments? Just because someone disagrees with you doesn’t make them an idiot.

  • I consume organically grown hemp. Its good shit.

  • If the Monsanto GM corn is resistant to a deadly compound like Roundup, and the farmers growing that corn are spraying Roundup for weed control in those corn fields, then isn't that corn contaminated with Roundup?

  • @CelticSouthland Yes. All inorganically grown crops have pesticide. The amount is extremely minute but, of course, if consumed over a lifetime, it will manifest into something greater. Eating inorganic food is okay, but should not exceed over 50% of the food you intake. Try to stay away from inorganic food, if possible.

  • @TonyKWestIsACracker What is you scientific evidense for this may I ask? Did you not hear that the food standards agency here in the UK have looked into 50 years of reaserch and decided organic food is no healthier. Organic food is full of natural poisons witch are harmful to you health anyway.

  • @meatisdeliciouse And dumping agent orange adds more, you ridiculously stupid twat.

  • @CelticSouthland - That is certainly better than spraying it over and over with different chemical herbicides and insecticides all season long like farmers used to have to do before GMOs

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes you dont have to use any pesticides for bugs or any herbicides for weeds if you actually just use the already naturally occuring processes to do these very things. yeah its a possible way to farm actually, its called permaculture or forest gardening, its been used for thousands of years. compared to the amount of work put in to forest gardening the production is dramatically increased compared to monoculture

  • @fatwadmcskylar think about it what do you do with our 'traditional' agriculture. you have to till the soil, plant new seed each year, spray pesticides to control weeds, spray insecticides to control bugs, it increases teh chance of pests and diseases, it degrades soil quality, its inefficient land use. What is forest gardening, you let the plants grow on their own, you do little to no replanting each year, you leave the soil to itself, you build the soil with composting

  • @fatwadmcskylar - Yea?

    Have you done it?

    It sure is easy and productive when you read about it on the internet.

    Real life is usually quite different.

    Why do you suppose pesticides were developed in the first place?

  • @fatwadmcskylar

    Might have been done years ago....but this is 2011 and we have 7 billion people to feed.

    Modern agriculture is allowing us to survive. "Permaculture" or forest gardening is not realistic on a large scale.

    Biotech has allowed us to increase yields and will is the solution for the growing demand for food.

    Textbook talk does not equal real life farming

  • @fatwadmcskylar This post cracks me up. How many people can you feed like this? Could you feed yourself or your family? No, you would starve.

  • Monsanto - The company who brought you Agent Orange.

    Millions of Vietnamese people and US veterans don't recommend it!

  • @NoOneBeatsTheReaper man thats so true! im a cna i take care of vetrans of the vietnam and korean wars! all have severe cancer growths, its really sad, many even tell me about how they saw planes dropping the poisons. i have seen many die horrible cancerous deaths and many have told me that they feel it was the poisons dropped.it devasted to foilage and it devastated their bodies. one man had full blown cancer,everywhere,he was there to teach the koreans like a teacher,he died with honor :( _ _

  • @NoOneBeatsTheReaper

    if a company or individual's primary task is to kill and destroy, you can't expect that same indiivdual or group to turn around and contribute to the growth of life. A tiger can't be expected to become a vegetarian overnight, one has to consider the nature and habit of the person or group involved

  • @NoOneBeatsTheReaper

    Don't worry. Exxon Mobile have helped find a solution on the problem of dioxin residue. Napalm bombings pretty much burn all the residues that Monsanto agents left behind.

  • Attractive lips :)

  • A recent Russian study demonstrates the connection between Monsanto's genetically modified soybeans and infertility. USA fertility clinics have done great business over the last decade. A connection?!

    ------------

    A study published in the International Journal of Biological Sciences demonstrates the toxicity of 3 genetically modified corn varieties sold by Monsanto, December 11, 2009;

  • @3Toad3

    "USA fertility clinics have done great business over the last decade. A connection?!"

    Yea a connection, is saying the Russian study is bullshit? Or maybe because sicker people are being kept alive more then would even 5 years ago next to our advanced medicine?

    Fucking retards.

  • Monsanto has no regard for any organic life on this planet.

  • Hi Shelly - I thought you'd be interested in this:

    Haitian Farmers Commit to Burning Monsanto Seeds

    mediaroots(DOT)org/haitian-far­mers-commit-to-burning-monsant­o-seeds(DOT)php(DOT)php

  • Really Not Approved until 2000? Try again, get your facts straight.

  • @Abercrombie2001 You are a troll..... somebody block him.... You can grow things with out spraying and killing every bug and weed in the state. And if you want to kill bugs and weeds try things not made in a test tube. I can feed my family on 15 ac, with out Monsanto's help. I have used round up and other items but I hate to say it but I have found organic solutions work better and are cheaper.

  • @youratm So I am a Troll if I disagree with facts? not some made up BS that is being displayed ? Nah, I am good I will stay around, to educate! and I am going to go out on a limb and say you could feed a family on 15 ac, agreed, are you willing to give up your job to do it? yeah I grew up on a farm its a full time job, so I am sure if we all want to take a step back to pre-industrial revolution, then yeah all americans could do that. let me know when you when you talk everybody into that...

  • @Abercrombie2001 Of course youratm doesn't want you killing bugs; you could end up killing one of his relatives!

  • @Abercrombie2001 Man if you think Round up is good for you Great go for it.... But you know those companies do not care about you nor me nor our kids. Did you take the mark yet???

  • @youratm Hey shit for brains! First off I'm a FEMALE so I don't know where you're getting MR. Sect. from! Second you only blocked me because because you're a FAKE Christian and a worthless, brainwashed, moron who will ONLY correspond to those that are as worthless and brainwashed as yourself (you want an example of someone else like this your shithead friend blogrich55 is a prime example!)! I'm quite happy you blocked me because it show just how much of a chicken shit coward you truly are!

  • @Sectumsempra9833175

    Bring it on big Girl you are up block But Please keep that nasty mouth to your self.....

    I can dance with the Best.... But if you post nasty mouth comments on my YT I will block you again....

    Let start the party

    Fake Christian that's me... I do not cuss nor call names. I try with all my heart and mind to keep Gods Laws. I do not watch porn? I give money to the poor? I read my Bible? But none of that saves me.

    your turn,,,,, You RATM

  • @youratm You are not the boss of me there for I can speak however I choose! Oh and you're a liar (this makes God and Jesus cry by the way)! You did NOT unblock me from your channel! You posted: "I do not watch porn?" "I give money to the poor?" "I read my Bible?" Why are you asking me these questions. I do not know if you watch porn, I also don't know if give money to the poor nor do I know if you read your Bible. What is a or an RATM?

  • @youratm Worthless, close minded asshole!

  • PBS needs to lose them as a sponsor.

  • AWESOME...I've been saying this for years...

  • In June the FDA will probably approve Monsanto's GMO alfalfa. Why? Because Monsanto wants them to. Network with others - become "many voices". Let President and Michelle Obama know what you think about Monsanto's genetically modifed seeds.

  • Monsanto's director of corporate communications explained the company's regulatory philosophy to Michael Pollan in 1998: "Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food. Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is FDA's job."

    That about sums it up for Monsanto - and they sell 90% of the gmo seeds in the USA.

  • Shelly, mud wrestle Sarah Palin for control of the GOP.

  • Thank you for bringing attention to this important info affecting our health and well being! Perhaps now that the government is going to play a larger role in healthcare they will start caring more that we're being poisoned by our food supply. Until then... we buy organic! :-)

    LOVE&LIGHT ❤**•­¸¸.•***•¸¸¸.•*¨*

  • monsanto is behind the hidden underreported poision aspertame. They should not be forgiven for this. Of course it has headed by an asiatic askenazi jew with double passport to Israel, and false flagged 9/11 for Israel. . Don Rumsfield.

  • you're great, thanks.

  • You mean, I shouldn't spray weed killer all over a pregnent woman?

    OMG

    What would I do without your useless videos Shelly?

    Yet another video to add proof to my accusation that you want a Nanny State to protect us from our own stupidity.

  • @Twiggy269

    Unfortunately these weed killer goes into the food that we eat ... or did you forget that point? That comment was pointless, witty but useless.

    Where in the video does she even imply that we should have a nanny state take care of us? She did her research about Monsanto's corruption of science using money to further their agendas (surprise surprise!). And how we shouldn't take things at face value and do own research. Think before you vomit Twiggy.

  • @valentin6li

    I might agree with your post if I hadn't been a subscriber of Shellys for years. I know full well she supports the nanny state when it comes certain things. She may masquerade around like a freedom loving woman when she does economic vids about the fed. but she is quick to jump on the free market when it suits her.

  • where is the evidence that the food we eat in 1st world countries is dangerous?

    Whats dangerous is having nasty insects crawling all over our food.

    Besides, how can you be against genetic engineering if it can feed the starving masses, you're a good altruist arn't you?

  • Comment removed

  • @Twiggy269 Maybe you should do a little more research. GMOs aren't feeding the starving masses. GMO crops are failing more often than non-GMO crops did. They're also aiding in the evolution of super-bugs, which means that more of those "nasty insects" will be crawling all of our food even though it's being sprayed with poison.

    Personally, I'd rather eat REAL food that had some bugs on it than consume poison every day and watch Monsanto destroy any hope of ending world hunger with their GMOs.

  • @GirlDisassembled

    lol. You people get more crazy everytime I chat with you. Ask yourself this question smarty pants, if GMO's failed more often, and provided less profit, why would they even be planted??

    You think people are stupid? Or just plain evil??

    Wake up.

    Idiot.

  • @Twiggy269 Because Monsanto has created a seed monopoly, and has made it impossible in many places, (India, for example) for farmers to get seed from anyone but them. Monsanto is touting GM crops as the solution to world hunger, but it's just an excuse for them to push their seeds through to market before proper testing is done.

  • @GirlDisassembled

    "Monsanto has created a seed monopoly, and has made it impossible in many places..."

    See, this is where you fall off the deep end Girl, Monsanto could not create a coercive monopoly without the explicit assistence of the Government of said country.

    Monsanto has no guns to force Indians to buy their seeds. You should be blaming the Indian Government for cutting special deals, not Monsanto.

    One has a gun, the other has a seed. Who you going to blame?

  • @Twiggy269

    I don't know if you are truly concerned or just being manipulative with your comment about altruism. But I'll hope for the former and really take some time to discuss this with you.

    Your first question is implying that the food in the 1st world is all genetically modified. This is a false premises. Since the industrialization of the developed countries from mid-19th century till now, genetic-modification has been only applied in the last couple of decades and far from dominant .. yet

  • @Twiggy269

    I'm sorry but "nasty insects" and other animals have been crawling all over "our" food and eating it before the Neolithic Era till now ... it's called ecology ... and humans have survived it. As for your 2nd question, we have enough food in the world to feed more than the 6.5 billion ppl on this earth currently. It's the distribution of the food (the political-economic structure) that is one of the main issue. While US deals with obesity (even using laws to curb it) others starve...

  • @Twiggy269

    During the 90's, there was a memo and report from the UN's agricultural division (forgot the name and abbrev), which demanded farmers to decrease production even when it could expand, to increase food prices regardless of the fact that civilians of that country were starving. I know Monsanto's website stated all about their "saving the starving ppl" (yadayada) PR material. But the documented case of Indian farmers state a whole different reality as GirlDis had implied towards.

  • "Monsanto-funded scientist opened up their studies which showed erroneous designs like taking dead rat and cows out of their data!!"

    This is the reason why govt should not be responsible for safety of the food supply. That is YOUR responsibility, and you vote with your dollars. If monsanto is guilty of fraud, they should be held accountable,I am 100% against the idea of a govt agency like the FDA. They are the reason why you get shitty food and drugs, not the thing that keeps you safe.

  • @Twiggy269

    OK, now onto the evidences that GMOs are dangerous. There have been many case studies of various GMOs that have caused illness in ppl. A few of the more popular ones are L-trytophan from GMO bacteria (37 deaths and 1.5K permanent disabilities), FlavrSaver tomatoes (illness), Bt corn (LD50 of their studies of rats and intestinal cancer - the FDA knew about these studies and kept quiet), Starlink Corn and many more.

    I'm not against GM entirely but there are issues to go over...

  • @Twiggy269

    Lastly, I laugh at this whole debate of Right vs Left, Gov't vs Corp, Socialism vs Capitalism ... BS

    There really is no "Big Gov't" or "Big Business", it should be just the "Big Boys' Club". A lot of CEO and Directors sit on the corresponding ministry of their industry. An example: Monsanto's senior scientist, Ms. Miller who walked over to the FDA to audit her own study (changed health limit from 10ppb to 1000ppb).

    "It isn't a thin line b/w gov't and corporation, there is NO line."

  • @valentin6li

    These vids are stupid. Shelly has a clear and coherant message when she talks about the FED, simple, ABOLISH it.

    Why can't she say the exact same shit about the FDA!!! They are just as evil and uselss and the FED, I don't see Shelly making vids about how evil Goldman Sachs is, she makes the about the FED, this works the SAME with the FDA vs Monsanto.

  • @Twiggy269

    Genetic modification is VERY complex and there are many side-effects and complications that earlier scientist have not thought about. There is the case of trait activation/inhibition, chaperon genes, issues with gene splicing, and ID tags which overcame the "impossibility" of contamination, and many others. Please look them up yourself.

    Under pressure, Monsanto-funded scientist opened up their studies which showed erroneous designs like taking dead rat and cows out of their data!!

  • Shelly, do not call them Monsanto. The more appropriate moniker for this evil company and death merchant is Monsatan.

  • thank you for your work

  • ur a dumb bitch go to college and get both sides of the story, dont be so close minded! if there wasnt any genetically modifityed organizms or crops that use the benefits of round up you would be paying outragious amounts of money to buy food, clothing and other essentials for living. So stick that in ur pipe and smoke it!

  • Almost every food product contains monstanto. Anything with soy or corn, including corn syrup which is in just about every type of packaged food in the western world, as well as all soda pops.

  • Its population controll.Its killing all of the bees.lol This is by design.

  • Who would give a hands down to this?? :S

  • Thanks Shelly, I shall purge my home of any and all MONSANTO products.

  • Monsanto, a wonderful Sephardic Jewish name, always looking to monopolize and adulterate the Goyims' food supply. Dump the Jew.

  • the company I work for sells product to monsanto.. when ever they call the price just went up...LOL

    Corporate greed at its best

  • The Chemistry of Monsanto: 100% Illuminati!

  • Dog gone Monsanto bastard Jews

  • Its a sad world we live in when money is more important than the welfare of the people.

  • @BladeoftheSword indeed its very sad. i have trouble everyday dealing with this reality. everything could be so much better. People must be the priority (of course thats not what our leaders think). Until then it is just a corporate show. greetings friend

  • you are so amazingly beautiful.

  • Instead of herbicides we should be using prison labor to chop weeds. America produces plenty of prisoners to meet this need.

  • @oilhammer04 aren't you afraid they might overwork your mother?

  • @robertoray1277, the M-4 would insure against that, if she were still around.

  • Common sense tells me that if a chemical that kills weeds is used on food to be eaten , this is a bad bad thing. poison is poison , ya know like fluoride .......  Cull the elites... just a thought .... woops that wasnt nice. Oh oh the pre crime police are here. I have done it now ! Bastards....

  • @spiralreplicator lol'd hard

  • @spiralreplicator I call BS on this logic. Plant cells and animal cells are vastly different, so just because soemthing might adversely effect a plant, doesn't mean it will have the same effect on people. For example, Round-Up inhibits a pathway only present in plants, not animals. So it doesn't effect people.

  • @sparkylovesmangos " I call BS on this logic." I think you really ought to look at the results of BT Cotton on the Indian Farmers Wo are being poisoned and sickened by the insecticide made by the plants frankenstein genes. Look at their lands, Look at their industry in a shambles and look at the suicide and failure rates of the farmers after being sucked into Monsanto's terminator seed markets. I call bullshit on your total understanding of GMOs and their Real world impacts. Time to study..

  • @spiralreplicator I really doubt you or most of the commenters even know what a GMO actually is or how it is made, much less how it works. Ignorance is the only thing fueling the anger people have towards biotechnology, and it is really sad.

    Also, blaming all farmer suicide in India strictly on biotechnology shows you clearly know absolutely nothing about India or their socio-economic problems. Please take your own advice next time.

  • @CouldNotCareLes Terminator seeds is a term used in association with the fact that once the seed is grown into crop that seed from THAT crop are infertile and wont germinate. Forcing the farmer to by seed again from Monsanto. This is what I have read over and over soooooo, What Did you think I meant ?

  • @sparkylovesmangos

    What a load of tripe!

    Just because the chemicals in Round-up kill weeds, does that mean to you it doesn't effect humans?? How did you come up with that one?

    For example, Detol kills bacteria. Would you spray it on your burger??

    But anyway, keep practicing what you preach, you won't be around much longer.

  • @disndat11 Round-up doesn't affect humans for the exact reason I said. Round-up inihibits a plant-specific enzyme that humans do not have. Just like antibiotics kill bacteria and not human cells, round-up kills plant cells and not human cells. Please learn some biology.

  • @sparkylovesmangos

    But would you take a spoon full of it? Now that it doesn't harm you?

  • @disndat11 Why would I need or want to eat a spoonful of it? Does it taste good? I WOULD spray it on crops and eat them, if that's what you meant to ask.

  • @sparkylovesmangos "glyphosate is toxic to human placental JEG3 cells within 18 hr with concentrations lower than those found with agricultural use""endocrine and toxic effects of Roundup, not just glyphosate, can be observed in mammals." ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez/­15929894?dopt=Abstract&holding­=f1000,f1000m,isrctn "Glyphosate-based herbicides are toxic and endocrine disruptors in human cell lines." ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez/­19539684?dopt=Abstract&holding­=f1000,f1000m,isrctn

  • Also did you just cite trust in the U.S. EPA? We are truly doomed if the U.S. EPA is our watchdog of choice.

  • Can cause skin burns, permanent eye damage, and irritation to the mucous membranes. These burns or blisters may not appear until hours after exposure. Latex gloves offer no protection, so specially resistant gloves, such as those made of nitrile rubber, are worn when handling the compound. Can cause explosive mixtures with air at temperatures above 107F. What am I describing? Vinnegar, you're suggested replacement for Roundup!

  • Hi Shelley, does eating organic guarantee I avoid Monsanto?

    Organic veges are pretty cheap here in Australia.

  • Did you say nonesanto? ;)

  • It's 420 day and we're talking about killing the weed. What gives?

    ^_^

  • good one, thanks for this valuble info

  • Great video Shelly! Keep up the good work, young human.

  • Monsanto is 100% for "The Great Cull"

  • I love you Shelly! I want to have your baby!

  • at near 100% organic food on my table, i'm pretty sure I lost my monsanto lab rat status a while back.

    Eating organic is the best way to F monsanto.

  • Monsanto.. Agent Orange.. Corn.. MMMmmmm..

    Quit with the round up zombies.. Vinegar will kill weeds.

  • I know this may be way out there,But maybe ,just maybe chemtrails could be a (round-up) for humans if you will.Just sayin. Conspiracy nut ..no ..but every good conspiracy begins with corrupt corporations hellbent on profits at any cost.

  • @meangreenmojo99 I think you are on the right track. Chemtrails is part of a comprehensive clean up that also uses floride, vegetables inhanced to hold more pestisides, and various other state of the art technology aimed at people control.

  • @RealityControl4 No wonder all MY tomato plants died after a healthy round of 'trails over my county!

    I wuv my gummint!

  • thank you!

  • Maybe Round Up can be used for chemical abortions? Hopefully,...

    Anyway Shell, do you favor government action to restrain Monsanto in any way?

  • Lies & Deceit...That's all you have left to sell when you are completely deindustrialized and your Constitution becomes wallpaper!

  • Monsanto=death

  • Can you make more videos, there is nothing more inspiring than a pretty face speaking the truth ;->

  • it was also shown in a study that roundup when sprayed on gmo foods and then eaten would kill the intestinal flora....not good...

  • @skybirdbird

    All you people do is complain.

  • @Zeldovich i don't see warning as complaining....seem to me that is what your comment was doing....

  • @Zeldovich no,that's what you do.

    So full of seething hatred,sad

  • @chillart22

    Hatred?

  • Obama Gives Key Agriculture Post to Monsanto Man

    President Obama announced that he will recess appoint Islam A. Siddiqui to the position of Chief Agricultural Negotiator, Office of the U.S. Trade Representative.

    Siddiqui is a pesticide lobbyist and Vice President for Science and Regulatory Affairs at CropLife America, an agribusiness lobbying group that represents Monsanto.Islam Siddiqui was a registered lobbyist with CropLife America, which spent just over $2 million on lobbying

  • I was mortified recently. About 2-3 weeks ago, there was a large sign posted on the grass of my son's school saying..... "WARNING...Pesticide treated area"... USE OF CHEMICALS ON GRASS TO KILL WEEDS.... Guess which company was listed....? Yes, you got it... MONSANTO's round up pro max 524-579... Needless to say, I told him to stay off the grass.

  • I was under the impression that "Round-Up" was mostly mineral oil?

  • I eat organic. It may cost a little more but I've never felt more healthy and the food taste so much better. People once their sick will pay just about anything to feel better. However I would rather feel healthier now and prevent getting sick later. Buy organic! Your body will thank you!

  • @jeremydb71

    Whatever. Are you controlling for the placebo effect?

  • @jeremydb71 the placebo effect in action.

  • @jeremydb71 a LITTLE more???

  • Hey, you're not in a FEMA camp! Yeah, we're losing the war on seeds.

  • Its poison with death and destruction in its wake!

    Idea....,grow enough heirloom corn around the monsanto corn and infecct it until its comes back to being natural!

    Dont be a lab rat with your own delicous homegrown heirloom seed corn :)

  • this is stupid, when did you all of a sudden become a communist propaganda channel?? the problem is the role of the STATE as consumer protector and its compounded by the ability of monsanto to lobby the STATE for special protections and barriers to entry, yet you make no mention of how the STATE is causing this problem. its great if you wanna warn people about problems with monsanto products but invoking state agencies to regulate them is completely moronic.

  • Your message keeps me informed and your smile brightens my day! Thanks

  • yummy yummy im so hungry... > )-

  • Nice see you back Shelly!

  • Yummmmmyyyyyyy. GMO's that is lol

  • Round up kills weeds dead alright and everything else with it. Round up has been known to contaminate soil after spraying.

  • After a long time, I;m glad to see you back :)
