A group of Finnish chefs, including television celebrities, have signed a petition urging the government to ban the import and sale of genetically-manipulated foods. They feel that allowing GM-foods into the natural food chain destroys the safe and natural production of food. Chefs Hans Välimäki, Kai Kallio, and Jaakko Nuutila delivered the petition to Finance Minister Jyrki Katainen on Wednesday. This autumn, the government is set to debate a bill which would allow the import and production of GM foods and crops in Finland. "It's also important to guarantee that consumers can identify genetically modified foods and animal products that have used genetically modified feed," says the petition. |
