Thumbs down blarg: MonsLanto to begin selling GMO sweet-corn to farmers & gardeners

With modified sweet corn, Monsanto enters fresh produce aisle | SmartPlanet

up till now, MonsLanto's GMO corn has been for the commercial market of livestock food, corn "syrup"
[actually converted starch, a complex chemical process nothing like maple syrup or cane-sugar],
& other food-industry wholesale users, or the ethanol corn-to-fuel industry.

now they are expanding into direct-sales food for human-consumption, with 3-way modified GMO-corn:
Round-up-Ready plus 2 inserted traits for insect-resistance [which will not be designated by source:
no one but MonsLanto knows where the genes came from, & they are not telling].
