Similar thing w/corn. My husband walks a rural route wherein the sprayer unloads weed killer on weed & ground and drops the corn seed at the same time. The seed germinates in these chemicaled soils and then we ingest them when we eat the corn.

Several years ago Monsanto (I think the source for RoundUp) sued a farmer for using seed he'd save from his crop of the previous crop. Needless to say, no corn or corn products in my home.

Folks on Pinterest are suggesting full-strength white vinegar as a weed killer. Will be using it this summer.
