I read a column recently in my local paper by a farmer whom I know.

He argued persuasively that the problem with GMO crops is not that they have been genetically modified, but that the modification is often to allow them to resist high concentrations of pesticides. So the food that you are getting has been exposed to massively higher amounts of toxic chemicals.

Makes sense to me.
