A Monsanto official told the NEW YORK TIMES that the corporation should not have to take responsibility for the safety of its food products. "Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food," said Phil Angell, Monsanto's director of corporate communications. "Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA's job," Angell said.
Considering that the FDA has been in Monsanto's pocket since the Reagan administration (anyone remember the skulduggery surrounding Nutrasweet?), that has to be one of the most revolting statements that I have ever laid eyes upon.
