With the current food crisis that is taking the United States by storm, it should come as little surprise that there are steps being taken to try to head off the inevitable lack-of-food dilemma by bringing up the idea of genetically-modified crops as something to be promoted within food-deprived countries. This is hazardous given how these genetically modified crops are often grown to withstand pesticides, and now might be altered to take on droughts and other global-warming induced issues. Which means that these plants are still grown with pesticides and harmful ingredients which we are then ingesting.

As organicconsumers.org tells us, “The value of genetically modified, or bio-engineered, food is an intensely disputed issue in the U.S. and in Europe, where many countries have banned foods made from genetically modified organisms, or GMOs” which should be enough to tell you that these foods are not good for us to be eating.
