It isn't just controversial, it's scary! Another reason to eat organic and unprocessed. Thanks for posting this. We need to know about nanotechnology and how it impacts our food.
If there are no regulations about the use of nanotechnology in conventional foods, I would be surprised if the large scale commercial organic producers are actually prevented from using nanotechnology in their packagings/products. The big commercial/industrial organic manufacturers are just as scary (to me, anyway) as 'conventional' food production. You're often better off buying from a local small-scale, not-necessarily-certified-organic farmer than organic from the grocery store. Unfortunately, being in Canada, we have a rather short season for local produce. :( I need to start canning.

ReplyDeleteInteresting article. I hope nano-technology gets a better rep than bio has...
