AMY GOODMAN: Though a serious irony that the Monsanto cafeteria does not provide genetically modified food, though it—of course, Monsanto is a maker of it.
ROBERT SHAPIRO: Well, I think it’s kind of amusing, in a sense. But I don’t think it has substantive meaning. The fundamental question is—I think there—I guess there are two fundamental questions. One is, is the food safe? That’s a question of scientific fact; it’s not an opinion question. And that question has been looked at by regulatory agencies in the US and in the UK and throughout Europe, and the answer has uniformly been yes. The second question is, are people concerned about it? And the answer to that, to varying degrees, is, yes, they are. And in the UK, in particular, I think that reflects a lack of confidence that the regulatory review process adequately protects consumers, and that probably has something to do with their experience with the mad cow phenomenon.
