In 2018, Bayer acquired Monsanto, despite Monsanto starting to lose legal cases in which Roundup was alleged to have caused cancer. It must have looked like a clever deal to Bayer, with the litigation reducing Monsanto’s price. But Bayer did not foresee that the Roundup litigation could get out of hand.
Whatever happened to GM Golden Rice? And wasn’t GM salmon supposed to revolutionise aquaculture? Three decades after the first GMO crops were planted, Save Our Seeds, in collaboration with GMWatch, with contributions from Beyond GM, explores the fate of eight GMO promises once presented as game-changers.

You have to be a pet to drink raw milk in nearly 40 states!
Dairy products made from raw (unpasteurized) milk have been a bugaboo of governments for 40 years. FDA officers have shown up at health food stores with guns to stop the sale of raw milk! These days, it is usually state officials that ban such sales, using the state police and demanding the products be destroyed. In an unusual recent ruling, a Pennsylvania judge banned intrastate sales of raw milk by an Amish farmer, but admitted he had no authority to ban interstate sales. Most Americans are required to impersonate pets to obtain raw milk, as there are no bans on its sale for pet food in most states.
