Absolutely LOVING this result!
Couldn’t happen to a more evil company!
“Worse than bankers or munitions manufacturers?” you ask.
“Too bloody right!” I reply.
They only kill you this lifetime.
Monsanto’s destruction will be felt for generations for if mere fast food can alter your DNA so it damages your children and their children, what will GMOs be found to do?
Nothing less me fears.
So, my good friends, keep spreading the word.
Starve the beast of its financial energy.
Make evil unprofitable!
Support organic growers and local farmers markets or grow your own.
