Packaged food in the United States must have a nutrition label, but there is not a requirement that genetically modified food be labeled as such. Should food producers and distributers be required to identify products made from genetically modified plants or livestock?

1.Yes. I do not want to purchase or eat food that is not natural, and should be given all the information I need to make that choice for myself.
2.No. There is no scientific evidence that genetically modified organisms are harmful to humans. The technology allows us to better produce foods without the use of pesticides and herbicides, which can be harmful to human health. Therefore, it is not worth the added cost of requiring new labeling
