I have to wonder if anyone really knows what he/she is ingesting when he/she buys a potato at the market‚ or gets a super scoop from McDonald’s. Biotechnology would replace toxic insecticides with supposedly safer toxins for killing beetles that may be harmful to the crops. Meanwhile‚ biotechnology makes planting easier and cheaper for the farmers‚ which makes the crops more affordable for the consumer. Although these biotech products

called bacillus thuringiensis. Making BT crops makes the plant have more resistance to pests and viruses that could harm the plant. The bacteria injected in it causes insects to resist the plant. But‚ using BT is better than spraying plants with insecticides because BT doesn’t kill the insects (it just keeps them away)‚ and it is safer for humans.
