This is true, Glyphosate is bad for you if you directly ingest it, it probably would cause cancer. The way it's applied to crops is measured in ounces per acre. And if you wash your vegetables it's all gone. Nobody is drinking it by the glass full.

Compared to almost all other forms of weed killer Glyphosate is in fact the safest, without it all of your crops would cost several times as much money, and would be much less plentiful.

Saying Glyphosate causes cancer is like saying Carbon Monoxide and NOx cause cancer, so we should ban the internal combustion engine and all ride our bikes. Fantastic, what a wonderful life that would lead to....
