GM Food

Things I did not know about GM food:

1) GM food is patented; so if GM seed mixes with your seed, it is illegal for you to use any of your crop.

2) GM seed is classified as "almost identical"; so no need for special testing, but yet different enough to be patented.

3) GM seeds have a "termination" gene; so that after 1 generation, the seed is sterile and you have to buy new seeds; CAN THIS BE TRUE?????

4) GM food is not labeled on products in USA; so there is no way of tracking it's effect
