Who voted - the legislature, or the people?

The people.

After reading "The Loved One" by James Joyce as a teen, I thought nothing
could shock me about Americans.

I'm at a complete loss to understand why supposedly sane people would vote
*against* knowing what their food is made of.

But then again, 'food' as we know it is not available in the USA.
For instance, you can't buy cheese there. 80% of people buy this orange
plastic stuff, that makes Kraft Processed Cheddar Slices seem like the
finest Kiwi or Aussie matured cheeses by comparison. This is typical of
the foods over there (lived in Boston and SF for some months, visited NY
and LA).


I find that remark rather amusing. What kind of cheese do you eat? Are
you aware of that terrible bad "Genetically Modified Chymosin" that's used
in the process of the majority of those wonderful worldly cheeses. This is
one of the things that bother me about some of these countries. They don't
accept G.M.O. products from U.S.A, Canada, etc. but find using the G.M.O.
Chymosin quite acceptable. Go figger!!!!!
