Do you want to eat genetically modified animal foods?

Now's your time to comment. The FDA has proposed a draft guidance on the issue of commercializing GE animal foods, and the best part is....they are NOT requiring these foods to be labeled.

Public comments will be accepted until November 18. One way to comment is to visit the True Food Network website and post your comment there.

Here's a little more info from their site:

The FDA draft guidance would treat genetically engineered animals under its new animal drug provisions. While the new guidance would require a long-overdue review process, the proposed FDA rules are seriously flawed. While regulating genetically engineered animals through the more rigorous “new animal drug” provisions is good news—meaning each new GE animal would have to get FDA approval before going to market, like new drugs do—the secrecy inherent in our current drug approval process is bad news for consumers. In addition, FDA’s limited review will only be for efficiency of the GE process, the safety of the GE process on the animal, and will not require extensive testing of the foods derived from such animals. Moreover, the review will not cover environmental issues like impacts to wildlife or biodiversity.

Scared yet? I definitely am.
