when dung has a high probability of propagating parasites across the food chain and causes acid rain
Bullshit. Show me one citation that says that natural fertilizers such as animal dung have any connection to acid rain. I dare you.
Most of the other misconceptions in your post have been addressed by others, but I'm not done:
Of course white bread gets moldy... of course it does - IT HAS TO - contain some of the ingredients that fungi - yeast - will feed on, otherwise it'd be a solid lump of flour and sugar paste, which would not be very palatable. Breads that contain more nutrients (and fewer artificial preservatives) will get moldy faster *because* they contain more of the same nutrients that fungi - and HUMANS - feed on, and fewer inhibitors. Like nearly all foods. Like cheese:)
I am not in favor of cloning to be used in general in agriculture however.
Cloning has been used in agriculture for thousands of years. Direct genetic modification has not. There's a difference.
Margarine replaced butter because margarine is cheaper and easier to produce from agricultural waste products. There are numerous studies supporting both sides. I don't concern myself with it much, I've preferred butter with fewer processes between the cow and me for over a quarter of a century, and I'm 6'2" 170 lbs and in excellent physical shape. Read into that what you like to. But AFAIK margarine did not and has not ever replaced butter on the store shelves in sales, pound for pound (someone with more knowledge than me chime in if I'm wrong, but butter has outsold margarines of any kind in any grocery store I've ever frequented)
I can't decide whether you are an idiot or an astroturfer. Flip coin.
