I saw a picture of a barrel of cooking oil, and a sign of cooking oil was shocking, and the book was in Chinese and English: "Warning: Cancer and reproductive system damage." ”
This picture is less informative, and the most important information people want to know is: where is this edible oil produced? Why is it "labeled"? In which country is it sold? Will consumers buy it when they see it?
It is speculated that the reason why this cooking oil is labeled as "cancer and reproductive damage" is because the cooking oil contains genetically modified ingredients. Looking at its ingredient list, there are indeed soybeans, and according to the manufacturer's information, the raw soybeans are indeed purchased in Brazil, the United States, and Argentina, and the soybeans of these three countries are almost all genetically modified.
Our genetically modified science popularization workers have been swearing that the approved genetically modified soybeans are safe, which has reached an international consensus, and those academicians who have written to request the commercialization of genetically modified staple foods also patted their chests and said that they eat genetically modified on weekdays, but what is going on with this edible oil that warns of "cancer and reproductive system damage"?
When I saw the "warning" sign of the edible oil, I took it seriously, and I felt scared, I sent the picture to the child, hoping that the child should learn to identify when buying edible oil.
I'm always worried about today's children, very little concerned about GMO, and most of them think it doesn't matter, and even think that it's science and won't have any bad effects.
Until now, I have not found a single GMO science popularization worker to explain the warning signs on the edible oil, I really hope that they can make a convincing explanation in time, so that people know what is going on, so as to eliminate the doubts and worries in their hearts, otherwise their hearts will be up and down.
