Chinese Thumbs Up for GM Rice

A ten-year research project on Chinese rice farming may have given Chinese authorities the green light to go full steam ahead with using genetically modified (GM) rice. I didn't know why GM crops are not good. But my friend said that GM is recent technology, so we don't know what will affect on our body in the future.

There are many food, which say "this is NOT GM food" when I go to supermarket. But there is no food says "this is a GM food." So, we might eat GM food unknowingly.

Of course, plants that had been modified can be insect resistant and grow faster. But it's unnatural. Natural food is better than GM food. I don't want to eat GM food if it is possible.
