Budweiser Vetos Genetically Modified Rice

Posted by timothy on from the squeeze-in-a-cheap-shot dept.

fishdan writes "Anheuser-Busch the makers of Budweiser and other beers, has stated that they will not buy rice from Missouri if genetically modified crops are allowed in the state. Budweiser is claimed to be the best selling beer in the world Bud Light is the second best selling. I wonder about the stats of Tsing Tao I'm not sure what they're afraid of from genetically modified rice. Do they think their beer could get any worse?"

    I don't know which scenario is scarier: modified rice, or rice in a beer!?
