Actually, very few people eat genetically modified foods. Selective breeding is not the same as genetic modification. The only food that has met with commercial success for humans is an apple that doesn’t brown as quick. Things like genetically modified corn are used for animal feed, not people.

Which is pretty sad, considering what we can do, and what we are doing. I think we could improve many things by genetic modification, and would love to see it done on chestnut trees to see them return to their rightful place in American forests.

As to traditionally grown crops, there is a hell of a lot of science involved, and always has been.

You win no friends, or converts, with your uninformed and elitist view that lab grown is in some way superior, and traditionally grown foods are not the process of thousands of years of scientific advancement and study, ignorant of the fact that crops are probably the most scientifically studied thing in all of human history, at any point in human history, including the modern era.
