While this 8% are limited to "sorts of" and may not include "CRISPRed" or "chlorine-bleached".

Just a thought from me, as European, in case someone asks for the thinking behind strict import EU rules:

We just don't want to eat things that we believe may cause (abstract) harm, and, sorts of liability of the state and society to care for you and (God beware) your kids if some adverse effects are pinpointed to food/imports or misregulation. I think it's ok like that.
