Transgenic Fish Go Large

Personally, I find genetic modification of food somewhat disturbing.  Scientist claim that the foods are completely safe, but it seems that as foods become more and more modified, they lose nutritional content (ie tomatoes and Chiquita bananas).  Sure, it'll be profitable for the companies to mass produce salmon in a shorter amount of time and the price of farm-raised salmon will decrease, but are those really more important than the health of the consumers?  Today on CNN.com, a similar article was posted, talking about the questions and concerns over the growth hormones that are gonna be given to these GMO fish.  After the article, there was a poll over how many people would eat the fish.  46.55% would never eat the fish, 15.78% would eat it in a heartbeat, and 10.89% would eat it if the FDA approves it.  I also find it interesting that with an increase in the use of hormones and pesticides in our food, there also seems to be an increase in cases of cancer, massive outbreaks of diseases and bacteria, and other serious health issues.  Just a thought...
