Consumer rights for safe food include the rights for food to be safe, nutritious, affordable, available, and sustainable. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are organisms like crops that have been altered by changing their gene sequence to induce desired traits, such as making crops pest-resistant or herbicide-tolerant. While GMOs may have benefits, there is no long-term research on their safety as human food and growing evidence they can be hazardous. To avoid GMOs, consumers should eat local, unprocessed, organic food and fight for their right to safe food and GMO labeling.
