The Issue

This is important because everyone deserves to know the truth, and most importantly choose for themselves the foods that they want to eat. 

Genetically Modified:

An organism, such as a plant, animal or bacterium, is considered genetically modified if its genetic material has been altered through any method, including conventional breeding. A "GMO" is a genetically modified organism.Genetically Engineered:An organism is considered genetically engineered if it was genetically modified using techniques that permit the direct transfer or removal of genes in that organism. Such techniques are also called recombinant DNA or rDNA techniques.
