Was reading an article that over 50% of American consumers are concerned about GMOs (genetically modified organisms), yet when they are ask to describe what a GMO is they really don't know how.
GMO is defined by USDA as “the production of heritable improvements in plants or animals for specific uses, via either genetic engineering or other more traditional methods.”
It goes on to say that in 2002 only 10% of the people had concerns about GMOs. Today that has grown to over 20% and continues to grow.
If you look at the definition according to USDA, then even crossbred animals are a GMO.
Where will this end?
