Grainger county tomatoes aren't gassed. And they disappear from local stores and farmer's markets at an astounding rate because they aren't picked green, gassed, given a coating for shine, sprayed with wax. Unfortunately, they do use round up for weed control, but the tomatos themselves are washed before going to the store. Try them some time, and you'll realize the difference immediately.
I have some of the information already, there are sites that list natural and GMO information for produce, but they aren't easy to find, and why should it be necessary to hunt for information, especially when prepared foods don't list 'Red Beauty' tomatoes, just tomato.... and you don't know what kind.
Why would I? Up until a few weeks ago I could walk into my back yard and pick my own.
Not so. You can neither "mate" (crossbreed?) a plant with an animal in nature nor can you mate a rabbit and a fox.
Then you would have to admit that GMO's pose no danger as the plant could not affect you when you ate it and therefore be the cause of your cancer, diabetes, or anything else that is being claimed about them.
