Headline from Zimbabwe: "GMO food banned … as nation starves"

From The Zimbabwean: 

Zimbabwe's main consumer rights group, the Consumer Council of Zimbabwe (CCZ), has started raiding shops and supermarkets found selling Genetically Modified Foods (GMO) on grounds that it is unhealthy…

CCZ which fights for the rights of consumers last week started to inspect and recommend that shops selling GMO foods should be closed.

Reading further into the article, one finds the claim that people are getting sick because they are eating foods past their expiration dates. Could THAT be the problem rather than being made from genetically modified crops? 

Read and weep over whole article here.
