This quote from Thor in particular "But thats the thing, the amount of research in the last 10 years is substantial, and added to the now 2 decades plus of data we can safely say there is nothing to worry about.", struck me as being too absolute. Science hasn't proven that there is nothing to worry about with GMOs. Some studies have shown that the products they researched were safe, and there doesn't appear to me much evidence to the contrary is a statement I could accept.
GMOs are still relatively new on market. There is a possibility that some past, current or future products could have some adverse effects. Labeling them as GMO so people can choose whether or not they want to buy them doesn't seem too outrageous a request to me.
