This bill may not have been everything labeling advocates wanted but it is progress.

As for the discussion in other comments about whether GMO food is safe or not, some are and some may not be safe, the jury is still out.  The GMO papaya, for example, that has saved papaya production in Hawai'i is one that people need not worry about eating.  The real problem with GMO is not so much the food itself but the pesticides and herbicides that are used in their production.  Monsanto has created many RoundUp resistant plants and farmers are using RoundUp in increasing amounts as weeds get resistant.  I want to know which foods contain products that were grown with herbicides and pesticides so that I can boycott them not only to avoid ingesting these chemicals but also to reduce the demand for crops grown in this way.
