It's a possibility, if HR 875 (Food Safety Modernization Act) passes.

Jim and I actually had a convo about this a while back in here. I cant seem to find the thread. But the person who is supporting this bill in the House is married to someone very high up at Monsanto, which I find very suspect.

I could not figure out why Monsanto would give a hoot about this enough to actually attempt to push legislation through the back door. Then I found this:

We have issues with searching for words in the new Deck. So far, we haven't been able to get the database to open up and let us move over 3 million search words. You can search by author, but not not by words.
This is vexing.
If you are tearing your hair out searching for something, send me a Private Message.
