Not at all is my answer! GM foods are very bad for nature, the DNA of the plant is modified to be able to survive in a particular environment, then pollination takes place and the pollen of the GM plant sits on a non GM plant and makes a another plant of the non GM type but now it will have characteristics of the GM plant. Which means if you have a GM field of crop and you have a plant pest next to the field; the pest plant will be resistant to biocides and will destroy the crop.
