Hmmm...somebody who doesn't listen to reason and keeps repeating the same debunked bullshit. Now why does this sound so familiar...

Does salt even have DNA to modify?

Also, wouldn't be GM salt? Or GM corn or whatever? Saying Genetically Modified Organism, then naming the organism sounds redundant to me.

Also, I'm not entirely sure salt IS an organism, per se.

It's a joke; they ironically post bogus articles.

Nope. Just sodium chloride.

It's not an organism in ANY way.

This, on the other hand, is quite real:

It's like I say to Hawkeye and D:  Can we all please just admit that this anti-GMO stuff is a scam?  Same with the 'all natural,' 'Gluten Free,' and 'organic' food already.  This is all just a marketing ploy & gimmick, people.  Nothing more.

its (supposedly) from India (the Himalayas area). Not that it matters, since pink salt (actually, reddish), is pretty common.

this must have quite some iron in it, which explains the color (this one isn't really "pink", but that is what such is called: it really ranges from off white to blood red)

also, the packer's a dumbass: when naming a mineral, you never put the descriptive adjectives in the middle, but in the beginning. Therefore "rock pink salt", should really be "pink rock salt".

and how is this a "non GMO product"? Salt is a mineral--not a life form! how can it be genetically modified? I'd love to see the breeding program involved  ::)

Meh

OK, this is a plausible error for the region, where it is quite likely that English is spoken, but not all that well.  The error you point out is precisely what caused me to ask the origin of the salt.  (While lots of people in India speak excellent English, they are not particularly likely to be working in the salt industry in the northernmost reaches of the country.)

According to Ethnologue, English is the primary official language of India.

QuoteNeil deGrasse Tyson can go fuck himself!

I just finished watching the first installment of the new Cosmos series headed by Neil deGrasse Tyson. And, today, today I feel less than dirt. Here we have this man talking about how miniscule we are, how beautiful out civilization is, how our destiny is within one another & space(through science). And I think.. I think, what the fuck is this asshole talking about?

Here he is, he had a notable scientist, Carl Sagan, as a role model/mentor, he had something to aspire to, and he's sharing the dream of his predecessor, the dream he made his own with us all, and it's a beautiful dream.

But, I have a greater dream than Carl Sagan & Neil deGrasse Tyson. I dream of a world where women like me will not have our identities contested and mocked by society at large. I dream of a day when we have role models, when we have the resources necessary for our survival as human beings, and when society thinks more of us. A future where marginalized people are exactly where they are today is no future I want anything to do with, and I see these people, these capitalists, these big thinkers, thinking beyond our planet, beyond our society, and where we never come up.

I'll be honest. I am sick to my stomach right now. I'm frustrated because there are people like Neil deGrasse Tyson who advocate for focus on science, while not addressing small people concerns, such as roads being built, such as trans women like me getting the support we need to thrive in our society, where we question the value of human life over the almighty dollar.

Fuck that. Fuck Neil deGrasse Tyson, and fuck Cosmos.

Nothing outdoes the crazy of fundies than the SJWs!

doesn't mean the inhabitants are all going to know how to speak  it well--not that it matters, since it doesn't have to be from India to be this botched a label.
Meh

So, these guys put a non-GMO label on f'in' SALT, and you're more worried about the order of the adjectives?
