    kaylar wrote a new post, Genetically Modified Foods; No Thanks 7 years, 6 months ago

    I was in the supermarket this morning.  They had just opened this new store and I, a long time customer came to visit.

    I happened to be talking to the owner about lots of topics, as I was shopping.  I passed a […]

    • I have no problem with genetically modified products like the agricultural crops. I believe the genes of the crops were altered just to become disease resistant and can grow to the desired size and weight it should be. I don’t believe it can affect our body because I believe the scientist won’t allow this to market if it does harm to our health.

      But I cannot blame those people who are afraid of consuming genetically modified foods.

      • I don’t trust any of this. Think of ‘healthy’ hydrogenated vegetable oil, virtually forced down our throats

    • I am afraid of eating genetically-modified foods, too! It is better safe than sorry; so I prefer organically-grown or naturally-grown fruits and vegetables. I also grow some of my vegetables in our small garden. It is always nice to harvest from your own plants.

      • When I had land I did the same thing. Grow my own, and know what was used on them… I’m not comfortable with G.M.

    • Organic and naturally grown foods are better but may be in some cases GM crops if properly checked and supervised without any wrongful method, could be useful for farmers as well as end consumers.

    A good friend may be hard to find. Sometimes one may appear to be friend but is actually foe. Some friends become foes and vice versa. Even a good friend can fall into the trap of betrayal. Perhaps listening to […]

    • Friends is like a gem, hard to find but once you found it, this can be one of the priceless thing in your life. We don’t need to find the friend because they are just around the corner. YOu just don’t know who the real one. You have to seek them and then treasure them.

      There are fake friends as to like there is fake gems. But that just make the finding meaningful and worth.

    Bubblews left a bad taste in almost everybody’s mouth.  So bad that people united to try to sue them.  Tsu social network was also a disappointment.  Many of these sites are very disappointing.  It’s the reason you don’t just devote all your time to one of them.  Because you never know when any of them will shut down.

    • It is a good law, and should be strictly implemented to safeguard lives of passengers, even of the drivers. If they wanted to answer an emergency call or a text, they should stop at the roadside to attend to it.

      While on the road, I can see people doing that, driving while talking on their cellphones, even those who are on motorcycles!

      • I experienced this many times, while riding a passenger utility van or mini-bus there are drivers who actually texting and calling while driving. Some passengers just took a photo and posted them in facebook because there was no other way penalize this kind of drivers.

        But now there’s this law penalizing them.

    This is a question that I just can’t stop answering. Found another song. It’s called “Always”. This is one of the most beautiful love songs I’ve ever heard. I don’t know if this lady is a new artist, but she’s new to me. Her name is Lara Fabian. She also wrote the lyrics.  If you listen to her sing this song, you’ll fall in love!  🙂 <3
