Would you knowingly eat food sprayed with Roundup?

Why would I eat food sprayed with glyphosate?  

Would you eat food sprayed with bug spray?

Food plants is not sprayed with glyphosate because it would kill them.

Plants sprayed with glyphosate die very quickly unless they are modified to be immune to it (such as soybeans) so it's unlikely you would eat any food sprayed with it.

All soybeans grown commercially are genetically modified to be immune to gylyphosate.  The soybean fields are sprayed and only the weeds die.

Soybeans are not the only crop in the food supply chain treated with glyphosate.  Look into Monsanto's Round Up Ready seeds.

Glyphosate has anabolic properties.   ;D

Seriously, as long as the concentration and use is withing acceptable levels you have nothing to worry about.

It's been exhaustively tested.
