>>we know that most of the herbicide resistant GM plants do absorb
the herbicide, and then express the resistance . When eating plants,
we don't want to eat those herbicides

Your comment specifically towards GM plants.  Its resistance to a
herbicide does not make it absorb and retain the herbicide and
express it in your food.  I think you will be hard pressed to find
research to support that theory.  As for the GM plant, it is grown no
differently, or is grown any differently than anyother related non GM
crop.  The GM crop is just resistant to a certain type of non selective
herbicide, Roundup in GM canola for eg.  Just the same as all canola
crops are resistant to the wild oat herbicide we spray on the crop.  And
just the same as wheat for eg is resistant to all broadleaf herbicides.
To say that the herbicide sprayed on GM crops absob, and end up into
our food is false.  Herb sprayed on all crops would have to act in the
same manner.  I have never heard of traces of chemical showing up
my food grown, from the herb that I applied.  I hope that you were not
making assumptions...
