For others, GMOs represent an unprecedented and irreversible experiment on the entirety of life on earth, as we place the power to create life into the hands of transnational corporations whose agenda is monopolistic control of the global food supply. But what is a GMO, where are they found, and how concerned should you be?

Healthy Dining at Restaurants: A Guide to Eating Well When Dining Out

While you have the greatest control over the food you make at home, it can still be nice to eat out once in a while.
