Genetically Modified Food Genetically modified foods are food derived from ‘genetically modified organisms’(GMOs). Genetically modified organism had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise than mutagenesis (mutation breeding) where an organism is exposed to radiation or chemicals to create a non- specific but stable change. Other techniques by which humans modify food organism include selective breeding: plant breeding

There GMOs in almost everything that we eat. GMO stands for genetically modified organism. “Genetic modification occurs when genes from one organism are transferred to another in ways that do not occur without human intervention. The result is a GMO‚ or a genetically modified organism.” (Farrell 1) Soybeans are one of the largest GMO crops being produced.
