The actual survey question is:
“Do you support or oppose the following government policies?”
with several cases, one of which is:
"Mandatory labels on foods containing DNA"
The first thing you should notice is that the word "warning" does not appear. Kudos to the reporters and slashdot poster who either did not read the survey or did not understand what they read.
Almost all foods already have labels, and for most foods (presently) anything more processed than a raw banana must have a label.
So, the question is, should all foods (containing DNA) be required to have a label?
For example, "This is a banana" would meet the definition of the question.
or, "You're looking at a steak"
I can support that, especially for processed foods, and we already have that law, so, yeah, I support mandated labels.
especially for those weird roots that appear in the bin at the grocery store.
WTF is that I ask? I dunno, there's no label.
