The Greenpeace fanatics on Genetic Modification have been condemning golden rice, which is modified to have vitamin A.
Problem is some people have a monochromatic diet. That produces deficiencies that other countries don’t see.

Those wealthy, wed fed people don’t see any problem in letting millions starve to death. But at least they didn’t die from the horrors of GM foods.
It seems that this is an affectation by relatively wealthy, well fed people who really don’t have to worry about where their next meal is coming from or whether they will get the proper amount of vitamins and nutrients. They always seem to wish poverty and deprivation onto the malnourished poor.
Maybe there is hope for the totalitarian regime to change their tune, but I can’t help but think of the millions in Sub Saharan Africa murdered by the same people.
Not letting them use DDT, even under controlled conditions that limited entry into the environment condemned far too many to disease.and death.
