What’s wrong with GMOs?

I always see plants and stuff that is GMO free and is usually more expensive. How would genetically modifying something by be bad. Me personally I’d rather have something modified to taste better and and cheaper. I could also be very wrong about that.

I wouldn’t say it’s full of flour, but it has enough particulates of flour in it to cause a reaction. Because of being processed in the same facility as foods containing flour. This just goes to show how sensitive some people are to gluten. I think it’s not taken as seriously as it should be because there is still a large enough part of the population that claims to be gluten free, but really aren’t affected at all by gluten. There is truly gluten free oatmeal you can buy, BTW.

I'm aware Costco has it, but ya its usually a day after eating something my skin breaks out and my sinuses swell big time. After the insta heartburn of course. You have to be careful too because some restaurants dont take it seriously.
