Hey, if it doesn't kill me,
hurt me or if my child isn't born with a third eye, then I'm all for it.

i don't kno if there are side effects but if it means that people can eat food if they don't have enough money than it's a good thing

Dig It
If you think about it, a lot of the food we eat now is genetically modified and simply accepted. Like seedless watermelons and grapes? They weren't always that way people. Making foods with pesticides already in them makes for a safer environment for us. Scientists are also thinking about putting nutrition in foods that are not currently "nutritious", such as rice. In third world countries where all they basically eat is rice can greatly benifit from this advacement.

Absolutely.
This food,lasts LONGER. When people say 'I'd like to know what I'm eating' Please,you barely know you put into your mouth anyways.
That 'natural' salad of yours,has been sprayed with fkn' pestisides. Yeah,smooth.
When the enviorment gets hurt,the food growth gets hurt.
GMF is progress,nothing more.

As long as it doesn't kill me, I'll eat it.

Learn more....
I think that a lot of people who don't like the idea of genetically modified food don't understand what it is or how it can help. I encourage people who don't know much about it to read some from an UNBIASED source.

READ PEOPLE
half the stuff you eat already has a ton of chemicals in it. unless you grow ur own food or shop in REALLY healthy stores, i KNOW it does.
all you going "ew gross!!" have probably eaten something genetically modified and NOT KNOWN.
besides, these experiments could save lives, like in china where it is really easy to grow rice, and that is almost all they eat, but since rice is not that good for you, they are trying to find a way to put vitamins and protein so the people can stay healthy. don't judge til ya know the facts people.

hey u probably eat gmf all the time and don't even realize it. why fight it? just eat it! lol

man people who don't like GMF are STUPID
genetically modified food (GMF) is working wonders man. i admit it can pose a problem when it mixes into our environment and the natural vegetative populations are at a disadvantage but you get to eat seedless stuff. plus, there's a lesser need for potentially toxic pesticides when you've got a strain of apples that are already naturally resistant to bugs and shit. did you know some countries deny GMF to their starving citizens because it's not "pure"? FOOD IS FOOD.

There is nothing wrong with genetically altered food. It is a scientific way to produce better and longer lasting arigclutural products. And scientists do NOT put any foriegn DNA into the food. Genetically altered food is basically selective breeding, taking one plant with desired traits and breeding it with another plant with desired traits to produce an offspring that has all the desired traits of the parents, the thing is that humans make the plants breed like that instead of nature. That's all there is to it! Scientists aren't gonna put scorpion DNA infused apples into the public! They know it's unhealthy and possibly deadly! And they don't put any thing out into the public right away, they do thousands and thousands of tests to make sure it isn't harmful! All that shit about 'scorpion DNA apples' is acctually transgenetic stuff, and scientists aren't gonna feed that to you! So get over yourselves already! This genetic research could one day stop world hunger for all you know! And the only reason you all don't like it is because your ignorant and scared! So just shut up already! god!

GENETICALLY MODIFIED!
Why on earth would anyone want to eat genetically modified organisms (GMOs)? I agree w/the people below. It simply doesn't make any sense to consume them...unless you want to move up your funeral.

Yeek, I dunno. I like to know what I'm eating.

What the hell is genetically engineered food? Just by the sound of it, I don't think I'd eat it...
--Posted by hearitontheradio613
No I'm not stupid, Yes, I am in informed
See, the thing is, we DON'T need it. It's unnecessary. We already have enough food in the world, the problem is how to get it to people. I just don't see the point in putting random DNA in plants when there are other options. It seems like a waste of time and government money. And to some people it can be unhealthy. True, not all, but why take any chances? And then there's the whole thing with the farmers (my uncle and grandfather are both farmers, and my other uncle was until he died, so I'm a bit biased about this, but oh well), but I won't bother with that.

It doesn't sound humane
I don't think I'm ignorant about genetically modified food; I've heard about how it can help your health. However, not all genetic modifications are good for you - some is purely just to make more of the food or make it taste better, and those can make the food even less healthy than it already is. It's also bad for the environment, and over the long term it may do more harm than good. I think humanity should stop trying to play God, and let the laws of natural selection take their own course.

gross!
It's bad for your health, and the environment. We can get seedless grapes from artificial selection (i.e. breeding the plants with the smallest seeds, until the seeds are gone); we do NOT need to change the DNA of a plant. Our food should be grown organically.

EWW.
I'd like to know what I'm eating.
--Posted by tidalwave_warrior
mabe its just placibo
but i feel better when i know im eating organic. I don't know all the bad effects of it, but i wouldnt so easily trust something that is unnatural without researching it becuase the FDA can't allways protect you from bad stuff in your food.
(side note: did you know that food companies don't have to label their transfats [which are fats that never leave your body and are linked to heart disease] if they are under .5 grams per serving. and that company can list their survings as anythign they want like one teaspoon.)
better check up on ur labels,
good luck with eating!!

ICK!!
Who wants to eat a peice of fruit that has chemicals in it??
--Posted by likemorphine
WTF
THEY ARE FUSE-ING FRUIT FLY GENES WITH TOMATO GENES!!! don't you get it??? you eat GM food, you are eating certain insects or chemicals with it! If you don't care, you are stupid. If you think it's good, than you are a brainwashed moron.
--Posted by donwnnabastupdgrl
Most of you people dissing it eat it EVERY day. If you don't shop at a health food store and buy all ORGANIC, not "natural", it MUST be organic, then you eat it. It's sick! And all u people who r digging it, IT CAUSES CANCER! People in africa are fine, we aren't going to give them the food anyways.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE THINKING?
why the hell would you want to eat genetically engeneered food when you could eat the real thing? why? the real food is out there and i the NATURAL THING, so why get your "fruit" when it has been genetically engeneered when you can go to a farm and eat the real thing, the thing that god made you to eat, instead of what scientist make you to eat?
--Posted by sarahlamay
r u guys crazy. genetically engineered food by no means should be used. not just because it tastes bad, but the nutritional value has be vaporized. im an mainly organic eater. me and my friend markie could explain the benifits, but there more cons that pros.
