Genetically modified foods are produced in a lab by removing a gene from one species and forcibly inserting it into the DNA of a totally unrelated species. This is referred to as horizontal breeding which is not the same as vertical breeding that occurs in nature.

What are the harmful effects of planting genetically modified organisms in other organisms in the surrounding fields?
Genetically modified organisms can outcompete other organisms, decreasing species diversity.
What foods cannot be genetically modified?
Any food that comes from a plant, animal, or other living thing can be genetically modified.
What action has been taken to try and prevent genetically modified food technology developing?
No movement to try to prevent the development of genetically modified food technology is known. There are; however, people who choose not to eat food that is known to be genetically modified, due to questions about the health and environmental effects of genetically modifying plants used for food.
What does GMF stand for?
