While DU was down, I ran across this anti-GMO and anti-vaxx kook. [View all]

It seems her only qualification in science is her "Mommy Instinct."
I do remember seeing her name in one anti-GMO thread. Maybe more.

#1746: Zen Honeycutt

Zen Honeycutt (we have no reason to think its not a given name) is an anti-biotech activist and figurehead in the anti-GMO movement, a conspiracy theorist, and the founder of the anti-biotech organization Moms Across America (MAA). In that role Honeycutt has been heavily involved in spreading bizarre myths, claiming things like that going GMO-free and organic cures autism (she has appeared at the Autism One quackfest conference, for instance, and on Dr. Oz's show – neither of which inspire much confidence in what she is saying – as well as The Liberty Beacon), and that glyphosate causes maladies ranging from mental illness to infertility.
