Genetically modified salmon? We're not going to tell you

Click on this link to read a story that first ran in the Washington Post (9-18-10) about the new FDA rules concerning genetically modified salmon.  Not only do the rules not require companies to disclose that their fish is GM, they also forbid companies that don't genetically modify their food from advertising this.  The ruling continues the huge controversy about whether such foods are safe and whether the FDA is protecting the interests of companies that use genetic modification to produce food.  Salmon is the first fish product that has been allowed to be sold GM.
