I'd only support it if the labels also have to include when the crop was created with mutagenesis and also anything that has sweet potatoes should indicate that they are transgenic as well (although they are a naturally occurring transgenic crop, it just shows that transgenesis is a natural method of crop evolution, just like selective breeding).

Also, organic foods would need to list the pesticides they are using. People might be shocked when they find Bt on their organic foods if they didn't realize it was an organic pesticide.

Actually, being completely honest, I'd prefer the herbicide and pesticide listings way more. I'm not really happy that organic foods aren't tested for organic pesticide levels.
