Some people don't, some people do, but most people don't care about it much. Genetically modified food is food that is changed by man in a very specific way at the cellular level. This is different from the way we have been modifying food characteristics for a couple of hundred years by breeding to get specific characteristics. But 'love' is a tough standard. Genetically modified foods generally do not taste different from non-Genetically modified foods. Nor do they cook differently or produce much waste differently. The big differences from deliberate breeding are in the laboratory and not in the barn yard.
