we want to thank everyone in our studio audience for their participation tonight. go to hannity the series we want to see you each sunday night on fox. we hope you have a good night. >> if i am going to help my brain come to fruition i am going to have to feed it quality nutrition. >> the food police are in. >> will epidemic is here. >> 95 percent will be over weight. >> over 95 percent of us? >> you know what's in our food. >> it is classified as poison. >> you better not eat meat. >> i haven't made a mistake ever. >> some say don't eat anything with a fate. >> alternatives to cheese, milk to ice cream.
7:01 pm
>> after all -- >> it clogs up the arteries. >> if everything we have been told about eating wrong? >> food for thought. that's our show tonight. >> there's lots to debate about food. we start with the newest fight gmo food. 90 percent of all corn grown in america is genetically modified now. it grew from a seed scientists altered by playing with it's gene. it makes it less appetizing to bugs so they can go with fewer pesticides. >> this upsets people. gmo is not natural. they put us and the environment in danger by selling it. >> there are campaigns to kill
7:02 pm
mgmo -- anti gmo movie. >> it causes holes in the gi tracts and multiple organ system failures. >> they use this point of view from an evil gmo pushing business. >> just puts it on potatoes showed growing slower after two or three generations and fertility problems and other began development issues some goody due shoes scientists have let's wait and see. >> wait and see? >> that sounds scary. it is says michael hanson of consumer reports. >> it is scare mongering. jonathan has seen holes in the gi tract that sounds really scary. >> there happens to be no
7:03 pm
scientific evidence that sports this scare. >> there must be some. not that there is any harm. we have eaten 7 trillion meals in a 17, 18 year since gmo's first came on the market. there's not one documented instance of someone getting so much of a sniffle. there have been 2,000 studies. you can create scare stories and fear of the unknown but if we are going to rely on the science no evidence. >> i have to say i agree with him. i would say consumer reports scares everyone will trivial risks. >> the fact of the matter is again metic engineering is different it raises risks that should require assessment before they come on the market and those assessments haven't been done. >> they haven't been done. >> of course that's wrong. he's verging on-line because he's implying that it is a very strong words. i understand that. he is implying somehow we don't have a regular story system in place to regulate the safety of gmo's. >> let's backup a second. you say this is new. what you mean by that is for
7:04 pm
years we have had genetic modification but it has been done more slowly by cross breeding. >> no these new techniques that allow you to move again metic material between organisms that couldn't happen before. that is the technology we are talking about not an extension of what we conventionally doing. cross breeding they made it and you see what you got. >> it is more precise in the sense of you can move one or a few genes but the big problem is you have no control over where you are asserting the materials if you can't control where you are inserting that information. it can have an effect depending on the location. >> it is not right. it's a real misrepresentation of it. let me give you an example. you probably like ruby red grapefruit. in the lab subjecting it to
7:05 pm
radiation and chemicals. that is organic but one gene being changed. >> one mutation was the stuff we like. >> one mutation out of thousands of 8 year laboratory study now it is organic. now we can reduce it to just one tested in laboratory evaluate it and we know it is safe and effective. the european commission has said it is safe. >> the grapefruit was actually, yes, texas ruby rhetted grape fruits came from irradiation. either irradiation or mutation breeding all it does is create vir ability for selection that happens naturally to happen. that is what technologies do. the cut and paste technologies you have no control over where that genetic material is inserting itself. there by causing unintended effects. >> you go on to the consumer reports web site you go on to the area about gmo foods you see
7:06 pm
scare mongering. they show a picture of a needle going into a fruit. that's the kind of things you see on crash gmo anti science. >> they play in game. one of the ways that you transform animal cells is micro injection. >> that is not a picture of animal injection. you can find it on the internet. >> i give his allies credit their protest is more reasonable than the one that got dtt banned from malaria. more reasonable than the drug war zealots who locked people up from getting cancer -- giving cancer patients marijuana. they don't want a pan at gmo they want food labels that contain gmo or not. celebrities are eager to point out other places require that. >> maybe move to europe or
7:07 pm
japan. >> or china. >> or india. >> or a lot of countries they want to know. you might decide not to buy food that contains gmo. >> certain companies would lose money if you didn't buy their stuff. >> you are just about money. actually this isn't about money it is about the right to know. the usda and other have said gmo's are the same in terms of nutritional content. >> why not label? >> gmo doesn't tell them anything other than it's the skull and cross bones. what they want and what michael hanson wants is to scare people and end the biotechnology revolution. so we have no impact. >> no, that is not a scare tactic. it is table tlabel the same arg used when they required fast and sugars and saturated fats. thank you michael, john, please
7:08 pm
stick around. someone else wants to tell you and me that we are wrong because we are not upset enough about chemicals. before we go to her, i will guy ahead and make more enemies by pointing out that i do sometimes mock people's fear of chemicals. for example do you worry about die hydrogen monoxide. it's an odorless tasteful chemical that killed thousands of people. many died after inhaling it. it also rust metal has been found in tumors and terminal cancer patients. sounds pretty nasty, but think about it. dy hydrogen mondoxide h20. this is water. >> i went to times square see if i could fool people into signing a petition to ban water. >> it's an acid rain. >> would you sign this petition for me? we are trying to ban hydrogen
7:09 pm
monoxide. >> i never knew it could cause sever burns. >> these football players signed, too. almost everyone we asked signed. >> odorless. tasteless. >> i am stretching here think about it this is chemistry, right? >> what is dy hydrogen monoxide? >> water. >> too much kills people. >> do not ban water. >> we don't support banning water on this program. neither does liz. she is upset about the chemicals on the food. she writes articles about symphony of the soil, raw milk the evil chemicals like tos fade. you want us to buy organic food and you do? >> absolutely. i think organic food is a win-win-win situation. >> what is organic food? is it organic chemistry is it filled with chemicals.
7:10 pm
>> it is two different things. one is organic the definition the usda has. the other organic is used lose lie by people like me. when i say organic is farming practices where the soil is restored and revitalized. >> and no pesticides? >> that he is right. >> what's wrong with that, john? >> first of all she just said something that is totally wrong. there were about 30 pages of usda regulations. >> explain? >> organic farmers use pesticides as much or more than conventional farmers. they are just natural. >> absolutely go on the internet usda bacteria and listeria doesn't mean it is less harmful. >> natural doesn't always mean it's less harmful. there are poisonous mushrooms and poisonous plants we can eat.
7:11 pm
there are good bacteria as well. there is one of the points of organic farming. when i say organic i mean kind of beyond the usda certification process where farmers are really looking at their soils and seeing what's going on there. >> there are meta studies that show there are no values. >> we are losing the debate. liz is winning. most people agree with her. >> you know what organic food is? >> yes. >> what is it? >> it is like fruit without chemicals on it. >> i feel less guilty being it. >> why is it healthier? >> that's what i hear on the tv all of the time. >> you have won this debate. >> good. we are seeing that the organic sector is a fast growing segment of agriculture. >> why is it good if it is much more expensive and we don't know it's better?
7:12 pm
>> it doesn't have to be bet more expensive. people produce their own. if you grow something in your yard that's a lot cheaper. >> the organic market is imported from china, grown in disgusting soil, very, very cheap. undercuts the american market. that's becoming a staple in the organic market. >> the biggest part of the organic market -- >> the faster part is dangerously polluted>> from china. >> there is a lot of certified organic items coming from china. >> that's where i advocate going to be a farmer. >> am i an evil person because sometimes i do what this guy does. >> do you eat organic food? >> no, i think it's over priced. i think the grocers are using it as a way to increase prices. >> my wife is into organic bananas. sometimes i change the labels. i will take the label on the
7:13 pm
organic baann bananas and she doesn't recognize. >> so many studies show there's no taste difference and no freshness difference. it has to do with how it is grown by an individual person and individual farmer. that's an argument they have been using to try to pump up prices and justify essentially extorting money from innocent consumers. >> last word. >> there are some people who don't recognize the taste. some do. they recognize when they are eating something fresh as o opposed to something danncanned frozen. >> i would love to get into a blind taste test. we are not going to settle thank you liz and john. to keep this conversation going use the hash tag food fight let people know what you think. >> coming up some people say don't eat anything with a face. >> also how michelle obama is just wrong and how i was just
