Monsanto NewLeaf potatoes are engineered to produce a toxin which kills the Colorado Potato Beetle.
(Hope it only kills beetles and not human babies.)
It also contains a gene conferring resistance to the antibiotic, Kanamycin.
(Does that mean the antibiotic will then not work on humans?)
Field tests for crops containing the same antibiotic gene were rejected by Swiss authorities this spring.
Only last year Greenpeace revealed a similar kind of project by Monsanto in newly independent state of Georgia.
(Why the f**k does Monsanto want to screw with Mother Nature? Profits at all costs!)
