Yes, remember that most plants are harmful to eat. For example, I believe it's Bt Corn which has a new toxic protein in it and it causes infertility in Pigs. There are warning given to all pig farmers in Europe at least which told them not to feed pigs the corn if they want to breed them.

No warning went out to the human population.

Another fear isn't that it's toxic, but that a plant may produce proteins characteristic of another plant. This has occurred with another kind of corn. People eating it had a allergic reaction to another plant (which they knew they were allergic to). This corn was only legal for animal consumption, yet it found its way into Taco Time Corn Taco's, who knows how.

ā??The protein, known as Cry9C and not found in other crops that are genetically modified, is safe for animals but may trigger allergic reactions in humans, including fever, rashes or diarrhea, according to government scientists.ā?


Hereā??s that story
