US-China GM food study misled Hunan kids (2)

Each of them was served 60 grams one time.

The Shanghai-based Oriental Morning Post reported Thursday that local officials in Hunan offered a compensation package to the parents of all the children in the school on November 30.

The parents of the students who did not eat the GM rice were to be given 10,000 yuan ($1,605), and who were fed "Golden Rice" were to be offered 80,000 yuan.

Greenpeace broke the news on the test of the GM rice by citing a paper published in the August edition of The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
