A recent news release from Reuters chronicles the story of independent labs that are being challenged to keep up with requests of product testing for traces of the 2A carcinogen glyphosate. The wave of requests range from small food companies, groups of doctors, individuals, and others.
“The requests keep coming in,” said Ben Winkler, laboratory manager at Microbe Inotech Laboratories in St. Louis. Winkler continues by saying โSome people want to stay out in front of this. Nobody knows what it means yet, but a lot of people are testing.โ
The commercial lab has received three to four requests a week to test foods and other substances for glyphosate residues. In prior years, it received only three to four requests annually, according to its records.
Looking beyond the headline, what we are witnessing is a further continuation of the rapid paradigm shift away from biotech, GMO food, and its poisons. GMO food and its associated chemicals have officially been shown to not only be toxic for humans, but also for any companyโs bottom line that decides to associate themselves with them.
In the last year, McDonaldโs, Starbucks, Kelloggโs, and others have all sustained major damage to their brand and financial health for dragging their feet to public demands for product changes away from GMOs. What Microbe Inotech Laboratories and others across the world are representing is the next, and potentially final, wave to swamp biotechโs โsettled science.โ
The decentralization of product testing away from the umbrella influence of biotech payoffs, threats, and influence is the end game. As recently reported, scientists at the USDA have asked for greater protection from the constant threats to their career, safety, and fraud from reporting the disastrous results found during GMO testing.
In the past, there was a lock down at the revolving door FDA, EPA, and USDA on information that casts a poor shadow on biotech and its products. However, this is all changing now. One has to imagine for biotech public relations divisions; this new era of independent lab reporting is a nightmarish game of industry-ending whack-a-mole.
Given the current trajectory, it appears the future market leaders will be those products that claim โGlyphosate Freeโ and โGMO Free.โ For small health and food companies looking to carve out a name for themselves, these label additions are a home run.
The market has responded with speed, labeling laws be damned. There is no doubt that, in addition to this race to verify which company has the safest products, legal concerns lay heavy on CEOโs and financial departments. If you are now found selling a product that knowingly contains a 2A carcinogen, in the same category as HPV and HIV, this can now be punishable by law.
Without major press or headlines, all food companies now have a major weakness exposed that should warrant immediate attention. In the age of rapid information, the question really is โWhat kind of attention does your company want?โ

yes, it’s about time the mon satan shat hit the fan.
In your dreams loser.
Let’s put this into real perspective here, six per week still isn’t a huge amount. Six per minute maybe, but six per day? Mountain out of a mole hill.
six what? why is mon satan banned in so many countries? Oh they did research on it that wasn’t paid for by mon satan. their is no benefits to mon satan what so ever. However tons of bad stuff to long to list. Go ahead and insert your head in your arse where it came from. You will not be missed.
List them if there is that many it shouldn’t be hard.
you know which ones or you haven’t figured out how to do research and google search. The last 2 being true won’t surprise anyone.
That’s what I thought there aren’t any. Thanks for confirming that you lied.
woe to you who evil good and good evil

Perhaps you just can’t read. First of all, it said 3-4 requests per week–not six. Secondly, it states that this number is up from 3 to 4 requests *per year*. That’s enough perspective for a normal person; it’s called comparison studies. Let’s break down the math for you in case you’re also lacking in those skills. We’ll go with 3 1/2 requests per week to average. That’s about 182 requests for a year compared to their normal 3 or 4 requests per year. That’s a significant difference, thus the reason Reuters wrote about it…
And still you missed the point. Not surprising, it is the results that matter and since they didn’t bother to list them, that most likely means the results weren’t in favor of this biased sites reporters.
LOL. That’s too funny. So if that was the point to your drivel then why didn’t you say that originally? First you complain about the number and now you’ve changed your argument to complain that they didn’t list the test results for all the tests they’ve performed? ROLFMAO. Typical.
You are the one that complains of the thousands of studies that show safety, and the billions eating gmos daily without a single incident.
Don’t talk to me if you can’t string sentences together properly.
Sorry, I thought you liked gibberish since you are dumb enough to believe the organic propaganda.
You really are something. Not anything good, of course, but you’re certainly something. Lol. Great job deflecting from the original topic, btw. I can tell you’ve been practicing…
Practicing raising and eating gmos as well as feeding the world!!
Your masters are undoubtedly proud of you.
Look for farmers here in America to begin dumping Monsatan and there ilk soon.
Either Bobo is a paid shill, or his seed business is doing really shitty giving him lots of time online. He should be busy selling his crappy seeds, and toxins.
In this case “independent journalist” obviously does not mean unbiased.
