What is genetic modified foods?
Genetically modified food can also be achieved by altering their DNA (or genes) by genetic engineering techniques. This usually involves inserting a gene into the organisms' DNA to create a certain trait. For example, some corn crops have been genetically modified so that they become more resistant to herbicides and insect pests. In most countries Genetically Modified foods (GM) as well as foods containing GM source foods have to be labelled by law, giving consumers the choice to use them or not. Agriculturally speaking the opposite of GM foods are "Organic" crops.

First you must specify whether you mean GM foods that are modified by gene replacement in the lab or by selection and hybridization. Because of the stigma given GMO's by pseudo scientists there are very few directly grown, non processed GM foods. Almost all soybeans grown in the US are GMO and most of the corn and canola. Sweet corn, however, is not GM, but it's a hybrid. Growers must use herbicides to control weeds because there is no GM seed to do it.
