Have you ever eaten anything that has been genetically modified? I am sure some of you will immediately answer, NO. However, I am sure that most people would have eaten genetically modified food, without even knowing it!
To genetically modify food, scientists may experiment by placing some harmless chemicals into the food itself so that it will taste better, grow faster or even have a longer shelf life. Genetically modified food has done a lot of good for the world. It is a breakthrough in scientific research and it is also one of the main reasons that the food we eat is so delicious. Is it not awesome?
I know that some people may think that this food is unhealthy or poisonous, but it is actually quite healthy. In fact, some of the genetically modified foods are actually have many more nutrients. If you do not believe me, look at this!

This article proves that genetic modification has actually helped to keep cancer at bay and also increased the life span of rats(I am not certain it works on humans)

Well, even though you stated quite a lot of information to support your belief that genetically modified food is safe and healthy, I am still not really convinced... As you said, they inject chemicals into the food, and I was wondering isn't all chemicals harmful, just that they might appear harmful in different waays? Therefore, I would say, normal food all the way!! As for the rats life span, ain't we suppose to kill more rats? So does it actually help us when the life span of rats increases?? xD

Ew. I don't think i can stand to eat things like that. I'm very scared that I might get poisoned by the chemicals they inject into the food. I'm paranoid, I know. But I think I will stick to normal food, thank you very much. Thanks for sharing, Rei!
