Hi Susan

There is no proven, discernable or even conceivable risk from GM pollen in
honey, especially in the minute quantities FoE turned up.
The problem arises simply from the probably justifiable perception in Europe
of the use ANY GM product as being an insidious attempt by large (usually
US) companies to force a very dubious product on a very sceptical public.
Put simply, after a long progression of food scares, most European consumers
would happily conclude that GM contaminated honey probably glows in the
dark!
