What is GM Food I Hear You Wonder??

Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods made from crops that have been given specific genes such as a strawberry that has been adapted to help it survive in cold climates such as england. GM foods have been around since the 1990's. Typical genetically modified foods are plant products such as soybean, corn, canola, and cotton seed oil. Some genetically modified foods have had there colour change as shown on this green apple.
