For the past few years (and especially this past one), I have been trying quite hard to remove myself and family from these monopolies of food giants. Your plea is not on deaf ears here and I will pass it on!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I think it is unnerving to think we have, in this country, allowed only a few groups to have control of our food. I really don't think many people understand this (just as the 2nd home/SUV drivers don't understand what they are doing to the Blue Ridge Mtns &amp; other rural/wild areas). It is my hope that we can educate them before it is too late.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Keep up the great work here (I love your blog!)</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10239730/112835955843880605/comments/default/112837064683064410'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10239730/112835955843880605/comments/default/112837064683064410'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bittergreensgazette.blogspot.com/2005/10/dominant-traits-ii-why-gm-soy-looks.html?showComment=1128370620000#c112837064683064410' title=''/><author><name>Gina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10788740577135090145</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://bittergreensgazette.blogspot.com/2005/10/dominant-traits-ii-why-gm-soy-looks.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10239730.post-112835955843880605' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10239730/posts/default/112835955843880605' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
