Should GM crops be labeled?
A GMO (genetically modified organism) is an organims whose genetic material (DNA) has been altered through some type of genetic engeneering. Thisincludes genetically modified crops (eg. corn, soy, rape seed, ect.). Should companies be required to label on their food that genetically modified products were used?
Note if you are unsure what we currently know about GM crops and how they are made/what they can do, this is a very short and consise article about it, which I find to be pretty objective. http://www.ornl.gov/sci/techresources/Human_Genome/elsi/gmfood.shtml

I'm for GM foods as a concept. I mean we will run out of farm land eventually so it seems they are inevitable (yields must go up). Labeling is so easy so why not label GM foods. However in the not to distant future so much of our food will be GM that labeling starts to have less meaning. Side: Yes there should be labeling
