Um, you DO know this study was thoroughly discredited last year don't you?

On October 19, 2012, six French national academies of science issued a joint statement - "an extremely rare event in French science"[47] - condemning the study and the journal that published it.[48] "In withering terms, it dismissed the study as 'a scientific non-event'"[47]

The European Federation of Biotechnology, which counts Monsanto and other GM firms among its members,[49] called for the paper to be retracted, calling its publication a "dangerous failure of the peer-review system."[50]

Apparently the J K L in the upper left corner of each photo denotes Just Kidding Loser!

Them there are some fat rats.

I did not know that. Good catch.

That's the great thing about science. If someone comes up with results that cannot be replicated, those results are rejected.

From the Forbe's article,

the investigators used a strain of rats that were bred to develop tumors as they aged (a detail they failed to disclose)

That's a pretty big mistake!

I was skeptical of the health hysteria surrounding GMOs, but one must either refute or accept a scientific, peer-review study regardless of whether or not its conclusions are what you believed true.

Refuted. I'm going back to being skeptical of the health hysteria.

I also posted a comment on the OP's website stating that the study was discredited. They should really remove it from their website.

Here's another one for you

There was also a scuffle regarding a study which was misinterpreted as showing GMO soybean yields as being lower than that of non-GMO soybeans:

The author of the quoted study published a rebuttal in essence accusing the author of the above of inappropriately exploiting his work:

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story

Any study that shows any kind of deleterious effects of food with GMO ingredients will find 100 detractors. That's why we need labeling of produce that contains ingredients from GMO plants (or animals) so everybody can decide for herself.
Benzoic acid is a food preservative and harmless when consumed by humans. Nevertheless it is listed on the 'ingredients' list of any food product that contains it. Same should go for ingredients derived from GMO plants and animals. I want to know what I eat. The only reason GMO labeling is resisted is the fear the bottom line might be impacted. If it's harmless why not consent to labeling and let the consumer decide.

That's because such studies are nothing but bullshit designed to scare people into funding more bad "science".

Would you like the ingredient list to mention the food product contains radioactive carbon-14, potassium-40, thorium-223, uranium-238, polonium-218, and tritium(hydrogen-3) as well?

Because your average consumer doesn't know the difference in the health impact between benzoic acid and hydrofluoric acid

Exactly...so that when the "oh dear..." memo comes out, you can adjust accordingly.

Let's be honest, anyone that quotes scientific studies are exploiting someone else work.
