[AT] OT--game changer

[charlie hill]

Interesting to read about the non-GMO wheat.   I mentioned
some GMO wheat earlier that would save the sight of nutrient
poor folks in Africa.  I know I read that somewhere but maybe it
was GMO rice instead?  Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
Or maybe I did read about the wheat and it is the same stuff
Ralph and John mentioned that is not allowed on the market.

Very true. As a thin person I am in the minority compared to years ago 
when a "fat guy" or kid was
something you didn't see too often and might make a comment on. Plain 
and simple these days
we just eat too much and too rich plus we don't have to work as hard. I 
am pretty active and
consider myself hard working but I know I don't work near as hard as my 
dad and grandfather's
generations did. Some of them died of cancer, heart attacks and strokes 
and some lived to a good
old age. But none were fat or ever ate GMO food.
There was a good documentary on CBC Fifth Estate recently called "The 
War On Wheat" that I found
both interesting and a little annoying. The modern, informed yuppies 
going on about GMO wheat
being so bad for us. News flash.......  there is no GMO wheat grown 
commercially. It has been developed
but not released due to the fear of rejection by the consumer. Probably 
a good idea until they can
come up with some good proof that it is not harmful
