That's silly. Monsanto is a big company that is in the food business. But in no way do they exert near total control of it. I can drive through Eastern Arkansas, where almost every rice field is tagged, and maybe half of them are using Monsanto seed. They are probably using some Monsanto product somewhere in the process, but that does not suggest "near total control".

BC,
Monsanto for starters. They exert near total control of food in the US and they influence the Feds to do it.
There is a HUGE market for organic food. Also a HUGE market for "locally grown" food. None of that is under the control of Monsanto.

The whole Monsanto scare is pretty much manufactured anyway. They don't control food any more than GM controls the auto industry.

Try again.
