How can you tell if your corn is GMO?
If you are a farmer, you know the corn you are gowing is GMO because you buy seeds that are known to be GMO.

How are GMO foods healthy?
GMO foods are not healthier for you. In fact, there are concerns and anecdotal evidence that they could actually cause health issues. Except for Golden Rice, which was created to produce Vitamin A, and possibly a few others, many genetic modifications are not made to make the plant healthier or more nutritious as a food, but to be resistant to herbicides, create a substance that kills insects in the plant itself, or for other traits that have nothing to do with making them healthier. Some argue that GMO foods actually have negative effects on health. Even the claims that Golden Rice provides Vitamiin A in quantities that is actually beneficial has been questioned.
