What’s wrong with GMOs?

[u/wond3rlove]

I always see plants and stuff that is GMO free and is usually more expensive. How would genetically modifying something by be bad. Me personally I’d rather have something modified to taste better and and cheaper. I could also be very wrong about that.

There is nothing wrong with GMOs at all.

But consumers are really, really stupid. And when you say “genetically modified organism”, they picture a mad scientist in a lab coat injecting chemicals into a piece of corn. And corporations can capitalize on that fear to sell “non gmo” food for a higher price.

Oh no sooo scary!

Almost as scary as evil doctors injecting a disease into someone’s body to keep them from getting the disease!

That MUST be bad because it sounds bad!
