GMO - what is it eaten with?

Economic progress entails inevitable development in the field of food production. Manufacturers are using new technologies and production methods to meet the growing demand. On the other hand, consumers are increasingly concerned about the safety of food products produced using these methods, such as, for example, genetic modification.GMOs (named after genetically modified organisms) cause a lot of controversy. Consumers are concerned about its negative impact on the human body. Therefore, they expect the products to be clearly and unambiguously labeled, regardless of whether they have been applied using genetic modification techniques, so that they can make an informed choice.Should the manufacturer report GMOs in the product?The answer is both yes and no. According to EU law, the product label must indicate that the product contains GMOs, for example, bread with genetically modified soybeans. Such an obligation is imposed on the manufacturer whose product was made from ingredients containing GMOs, but the final product does not contain GMOs, for example, oil produced from genetically modified rapeseed seeds. But - he does not need to report GMOs if his product contains, consists of or is produced from no more than 0.9% GMOs, provided that the appearance of genetically modified organisms is accidental or technologically inevitable.What about animal food?Producers of food products of animal origin, that is, meat, eggs, milk and its derivatives, using genetically modified feed in breeding, are exempt from the obligation to indicate them on the packaging, since there is no genetically modified material in the final product.And what about "GMO-free" Due to the lack of clear rules for labeling "GMO-free", individual states can introduce their own rules.Which GMO crops are allowed in the EU?GMO plants allowed for products: cotton, corn, rapeseed, soy, sugar beet and corn pollen.What cultures are allowed in the world?According to the 2017 ISAAA report, GMOs were cultivated in 24 countries. Soybeans, corn, cotton and rapeseed were grown the most, but also allowed for cultivation: alfalfa, apples, beans, cloves, runner-up, eggplant, eucalyptus, flax, melon, papaya, petunia, plum, poplar, potato, rice, rose, safflower, pumpkin, sweet pepper, tobacco, tomatoes, wheat and lentils.Is it safe to eat GMOs?The WHO opinion on the health risks associated with genetically modified foods states that these products are no more dangerous to human health than conventional products.
