Welcome to GMO Watch

Speaker 0 00:00:00 Welcome to GMO watch I'm Emily journey, your host, and I love to eat and I love food. I read labels and I don't always understand what I'm reading. I have lots of questions. I don't know the answers to here's a basic question. Why do I eat organic? I know it's good for me. It's the right thing to do. And I'll buy it organic as often as I can, but I don't really know why I do that. And if it's really necessary, same goes for GMOs. Is there really a problem with GMOs? And I hear conflicting messages about GMOs. So this podcast is about asking questions from my point of view, which is the, I don't know anything point of view and getting answers until I really understand what I'm hearing. One of my favorite things to eat is Doritos. Do Doritos have GMOs? If they do have GMOs, am I going to stop eating Doritos? Speaker 0 00:01:01 No, I'm going to keep eating Doritos. I want to hear answers in language that I can understand. Here's what you're not going to get. You're not going to get an echo chamber where everyone that comes on the show is in agreement and talking about the same thing I want to hear from people who think differently and come from different points of view. We're going to have anti GMO activists. We're going to have scientists who have differing opinions. We're going to have business experts who work in the agribusiness industry. I want you to take what you hear and make your own decisions. I believe that you can decide for yourself how to eat and how to think about GMOs and food. When you have the information that you need, you can join me every week for a new episode of GMO watch until then see you next week.
