The 19th century mantra if you wanted to prosper was ... go west. The frontier offered unlimited opportunities. But, there were limits. My advice is to go back young man, go back young woman. Look at what your grandparents and great-grandparents ate? They obviously did something right—you're sitting here, after all! They lived and carried on their line—it's up to you now.

MONSANTO are criminals for using us as their GMO experiment.

@carebonez Unfortunately, this is one instance when going for all natural foods and their respective methods of processing and testing has failed us as a society; however, I think we can find ways to bridge the gaps on both sides of the issue, but we need to address the problem intelligently rather than with blind fear.

@carebonez These all natural organic peanut butters don't go through the testing required by the FDA. There are plenty of scientific studies on the Internet that are publicly accessible that have warned of the dangers of Aflatoxins. Aflatoxins are toxic and among the most carcinogenic substances known to man.

@aquaponicsFL Shit I just bought some thinking it would be better. Lol whats wrong with it?

[aquaponicsFL]

@kevkaotic As if you even have the slightest clue what a GMO is and the science behind it. Everything has pros and cons, but nothing is more dangerous than ignorance and stupidity on both sides of the issue. My only advice to you is, don't eat natural/organic peanut butter.
