Zucchini genetically engineered?

[DreamingD]

Hello,
I was just reading a post here about GMO and GE foods and the website
www.responsibletechnology.org says let's avoid these genetically engineered foods and listed is zucchini and papaya. The site also says Alfalfa, zucchini and yellow squash (small amount), and tobacco (Quest® brand).
So is zucchini safe to eat? I dont really like it but I have some for a "pasta" like dish I wanted to try out, but since reading this maybe I wont.
Check out the site and let me know whats going on with that.

Thanks,
Dreaming D :)

Buy Organic... know your source... then don't worry

I will definately start buying more organic. Some of it is so expensive, but when I can I do.

Thanks,

Currently in transition from student to full-time employment, I cannot afford to buy 100% organic either, but as was stated in another thread, a raw non-organic diet is light years better than a diet comprised entirely or partially of cooked food. I mean, eating a raw diet but occasionally returning to cooked food reminds me of those people I see at the gym who come for a work-out, only to light up a cigarette afterwards!
