Genetic engineering is one of the most popular fields of science, especially in recent years. Experiments in genetic engineering have created important breakthroughs in many areas. As a result of these developments, we have cured many areas. As a result of these developments, we have cured many illnesses,helped to fight harmful insects and improved food production. However, these experiments may have some negative effects, but no one knows them yet. People often make fun of progress, because sometimes technology brings new problems when it tries to solve old ones. Think about the genes ! Scientists have genetically engineered them in laboratories. The results might be terrifying. Because of this fear, many people have some serious concerns about the technology and its effects on food industry. Some people have a name for genetically engineered food : "Frankenfood". On the other hand, many people believe tahat genetically manipulated food can bring many benefits to our lives. It may increase food production throughout the world and begin to solve the hunger problem. Genetically manipulated food may taste better and it may have longer shelf life. Genetically engineered food may have another advantage ; almost all farmers use chemicals -pesticides- to protect their fruits and vegetables from harmful insects. Genetically manipulated food may alleviate the use of pesticides. By this way, producers may decrease the problem of pesticide in food. Finally, these foods could be profitable for the food industry, and this could help the world economy.
Most people will agree that we need more information about genetically engineered food. Is it safe or not ?
