Answer

Scientists should be very careful when developing GMO foods and releasing them to the public. GMO foods should be extensively tested for side effects, and a GMO label should be placed on any food that is genetically modified. Genetically modified food can have many benefits including solving world hunger but people must be very careful of how they are used. Educating people about what biotechnology really is and its benefits will certainly eliminate any fears that people have of consuming genetically modified food.
