Our ancestors first cultivated plants some ten thousand years ago. They domesticated animals later and then selectively bred both plants and animals to meet various requirements for human food. Humans discovered natural biological processes such as fermentation of fruits and grains to make wine and beer‚ and yeast for baking bread. Manipulation of foods is not a new story‚ therefore. The latest agricultural discovery uses genetic engineering technology to modify foods. Farmers and plant breeders
