Genetically modified foods

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Genetically modified foods can unexpectedly appear in the food supply through contamination during processing. Although the FDA does not require special labeling for genetically modified foods, they do require voluntary labeling if the food has undergone some forms of genetic modification techniques. It is also not true that genetically modified foods are rarely grown in the United States, as they are commonly grown and consumed in the country. Additionally, foods that are certified organic cannot contain genetically modified organisms, while irradiation is a separate process that does not involve genetic modification.
