I think foods that contain GMOs should not be allowed to eat heres why. GMOs offer benefits such as enhanced nutritional content, and reduced reliance on pesticides, but they also raise concerns about potential environmental impacts, health risks, and socio-economic issues. While GMOs can contribute to addressing food security challenges and improving agricultural sustainability, careful consideration of their potential risks and benefits is necessary. Strict regulations and transparent oversight are crucial to ensure the safe development and use of GMOs. Ultimately, decisions regarding the availability of GMOs for human consumption should be based on scientific evidence, ethical considerations, and thorough evaluation of their potential impacts on health, the environment, and society.

GMOS or genetically modified organisms are organisms with altered DNA. Some people welcome the use of GM foods while others have concerns. Pros: Foods are being modified to be healthier for us with more vitamins; GM foods are evaluated to make sure they won't trigger an allergic reaction or cause health issues if consumed and won't be released unless the food proves to be completely safe and healthy. Cons: People are concerned that genes from "Allergenic (p. 2)" foods transferring to "non-allergenic (p.2)" foods can make the organism allergenic, but no GM foods have caused allergic reactions; another concern is that the chemical industry will dominate agriculture and farmers will grow more GM foods and not regular natural foods; People are concerned how GM Foods will affect them and the environment, they're also concerned about outcrossing where "genes from GM plants(p.4)" are mixing with related crops and natural seeds. I think altering Food DNA can be dangerous because you're eating a type of food with chemicals in it, it's natural DNA changed, risking your health.
