"Los Angeles -- Protesters rallied in dozens of cities Saturday as part of a global protest against seed giant Monsanto and the genetically modified food it produces, organizers said.
Organizers said 'March Against Monsanto' protests were held in 52 countries and 436 cities, including Los Angeles where demonstrators waved signs that read 'Real Food 4 Real People' and 'Label GMOs, It's Our Right to Know.'
