The UK have put in place much stricter controls on the GMO's. The

banned GE corn and soy are an example of the way they control

imported foods. The U.S. is trying to force their GE foods on the

rest of the world however, to my knowledge they haven't had any luck

in many parts of Europe. I haven't kept up with it just recently,

but in the past you would find no growth hormones rBGH in either

their meats or their milk. You will find this true of a host of

other European countries as well.

Many European countries like Denmark have banned hydrogenated oils

altogether. These are just a few of the changes they have made and i

know there are others as well. I have corresponded with some women

in the UK during the past year and their impression of our GE

policies is amazing compared to the way americans view the situation

as so benign and harmless. The situation is considerably better than

our setup. Ethics plays a large part in the whole scheme of things

and that is an area where our system just doesn't measure up. We

need to take a firm grip on the situation and soon or it will get

out of hand. More people are afflicted with intestinal problems than

ever before. No need to ask why, when GE corn and soy are in

virtually every processed food known to man ( in the U.S. that is!).
