Francesco Buscemi: thanks for sharing.
If this move was done so to keep GMO off my dish, call me mad, but I'm happy... and we should remember that the problem with GMO is not just about their being safe or not!
PS: commentato in inglese, visto che il tuo post era in inglese... :)

silvano garnerone: Hi Francesco,
I wanted to underline mainly the methodology chosen to take political decisions about technology-related topics, more than the GMO issue per se, about which I've always had mix-feelings...I believe it is always better to allow people to take their decisions based on useful information, more than on their gut feelings...and in the end it is an almost-free world ;-)

Here is a link to an old article (in italian) by Tullio Rugge on the topic: http://www.galileo2001.it/old/materiali/documenti/Tullio_Regge/04_05_11_regge.php
