Would You Eat Genetically Modified Food?

It’s most likely you do already, every day. Did you know when genetically engineering a food, scientists inject a bacteria to get the new gene into the food cells? Andrew Kimbrell, author of Your Right to Know and Director of The Center for Food Safety breaks it down:

The good news is that whole foods are still non-gmo (genetically modified organisms), that means your fruits and veggies, so eat more of them! The bad news is that four major crops, corn, soy, cotton and canola are mostly genetically engineered. This means most processed food since most processed food contains oils and (corn) syrup from these major crops. A recent study conducted by CBS and the New York Times found that :

Experts say that means if it comes in a can or a box and the label lists soybean oil or corn syrup as ingredients, odds are that it contains GMOs. Overall, 65 percent of all products in your local grocery store have DNA-altered ingredients…not that you’d know it by looking.
