Claim: A concern about GMOs are that they don't have labels which can be lethal when it come to allergies.
Evidence: "BT toxin, designed to kill pests that eat crops, caused allergies and other responses” GMOs
COUNTERCLAIM: All though labels can be a concern, do you have any evidence of a situation such as someone having an allergic reaction due to the fact that they didn't list GMO or product on a food package. Or any evidence of a story like this.
COUNTERARGUMENT: Strong counterclaim, but there are many more citations and cites that shows what GMOs have in them, for example, in some GMOs there is banana DNA in a type of GMO and some people are allergic to bananas.
