What is GM Food?
Genetically modified food is produced from plants which have had their genetic makeup tweaked in the lab. Scientists ―cut and paste‖ a gene from another organism into a plant‘s DNA to give it a new characteristic. This can be to increase yield or to allow the plant to exist in a more hostile environment than normal. Pro-GM scientists say this means cheaper more plentiful food but opponents argue we do not know the consequences of meddling with nature.
