"particles are supposedly safe "
One new research project that hopes to change that. Scientists from ETH Zurich have created tiny magnetic DNA particles that can be encapsulated in silica, and mixed in with the oil. The DNA can store tons of information such as the oil's source and quality. They particles are small and cheap to produce, with a cost of about $.02 per bottle, according to R&D Magazine. Since they contain small pieces of iron oxide, they can be easily separated from the oil with a magnet, and then "read" rather easily via a process called PCR. As R&D Magazine noted, the method also "made it possible to detect adulteration: if the concentration of nano-particles does not match the original value, other oil—presumably substandard—must have been added."
While the idea of DNA in your olive might not sound appealing, the particles are supposedly safe to eat, and the silica coating prevents the DNA from being absorbed into the body. Silica and iron oxide additives are already present in foods like ketchup and orange juice. In one trial, the researchers heated and cooled the oil, and the particles and DNA remained intact.

What? Pringles are made by Kellogg's?? Tell Kellogg's you won't buy GMO Pringles because the GMO Bt toxic corn in their fake "potato" chips is linked to blood cell & bone marrow damage in a recent study on mice. BOYCOTT ALL KELLOGG'S products until they stop fighting GMO labeling, remove GMOs and GET INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION. No voluntary labeling. We want standards at least equivalent to the EU and we want accountability. Get NON GMO Project Verified, Kellogg's!
