Frankenrice-aroni: "The Agro-American Treat!"
When citizens are in control of the government again--after 2006 when the corrupt Republican congress is sent back to slither under its respective rocks--America can return to relationships with the rest of the civilized world...which means putting Americans' health before lobbyists' dollars:
GM contamination warning triggers call for ban on US rice: "Environment groups yesterday urged the European commission to follow Japan and restrict imports of American rice after the US government admitted that an illegal and untested genetically modified strain had contaminated the food chain.
The announcement said conventional long-grain rice had been contaminated by a GM rice that was grown at experimental sites between 1998 and 2001. However, there was no indication as to how widespread the contamination had been, how it occurred or why it had taken until now for the disclosure to be made. The UK imported 82,625 tonnes of US rice in 2004."
