Do people love gm foods?
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.

Genetically modified food is not exactly on its agenda as it is not included in revelation.

He also called for genetically modified foods to be labeled as such.
