This may not be something new, but recently I discovered genetically
modified (GM) soybean cooking oils made its way to Walmart shelf in
China.
It was quite a surprise for me to learn that most of the major
vegetable oil brand names in China are using imported GM soybeans in
their mixed vegetable oil and pure soybean oil. Some of the mixed
vegetable oil contains GM canola too.
Here is a website by greenpeace on GM soybean in China.

What will be the implication of this to the ecology?
If we are promoting biofuel, and the biofuel comes from GM crops,
aren't we contributing to spur the demand for more GM crops?
Should we ask for GM labels on biofuel as well?
Just some thoughts.

Feini
