Proof The Bible Is True

Now that the FDA has approved salmon as the first genetically modified animal for consumption, genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, have once again entered the spotlight. GMOs, organisms whose genes have been manipulated to change certain characteristics, are revered by some for their potential to be more resistant to stressors like extreme weather and for their ability to produce a higher yield, among other advantages. Others worry they will contaminate conventional populations or may pose major health concerns. In April, Chipotle fueled the debate by announcing its new GMO-free menu.

Another major source of controversy is that the FDA doesn’t require GMOs, many of which are banned in other countries, to be labeled as such. The only way to be sure a product hasn’t been modified is if it is labeled as “Non GMO” by the Non-GMO Project, a non-profit organization, or if it’s marked “100% / Certified Organic.” Many people think of produce when they think of GMOs, but there are many other foods that contain genetically modified ingredients — and it’s likely at least some of them have ended up in your grocery cart. Here’s a look at some of the top genetically-altered foods on the market now:
