Genetically Modified Food — Danger Will Robinson!

I'm not sure I know how big a danger the genetically modified foods pose to the general population. However, I'm quite disappointed by the fact that the large corporations seem to be bent on concealing the scope and dangers from the general public and also that the primary motivation for the genetic modification doesn't seem to be real nutritional improvements but rather a scheme to try to control the food supply for corporate gain. That's frankly despicable. TEN DANGERS is a link I found, but I'm not qualified to judge the adequacy of the information or its truthfulness. The intentional modification of foods in unnatural manners seems likely on the principle of the thing, to pose risks, but the degree and severity of such risks is a lot harder to assess, especially with people trying to minimize the publicity about them.
