‘Biotech Buffet’: An Oct. 22 article on genetically engineered foods said the city of Santa Cruz had banned growth of genetically modified organisms. The ban was by Santa Cruz County.
The story also quoted Greg Jaffe of the Center for Science in the Public Interest as saying that voluntary safety testing by companies appears to be working and that genetically altered foods currently on the market are safe. To clarify: Although CSPI does believe that the genetically engineered foods now on the market are safe, it also believes that the Food and Drug Administration’s regulatory process should be changed from a voluntary system to one of mandatory, pre-market approval.
