Default Food Makers Fear Public Backlash over Genetically Modified Food

According to a recent survey, some of the world's largest food companies are shunning using genetically modified potatoes in their products because it could damage their public images.

Would you ever buy genetically modified food products?

No, I would not buy genetically modified food products as long as I have the choice. I want products made with genetically modified crops to be at least clearly labeled as such. Of course it would be even better to keep these crops away from being marketed, and even ban the import.

I would never buy food products that I know are genetically modified. Many large companies are taking this approach to produce food in mass amount to lower production cost. Take chicken for example, chicken that have been enhanced to grow faster are twice as big as regular chicken grown organically. In my opinion, food that have been enhanced to grow quickly is not normal, but is it cheaper? Definitely yes. I would rather stick to organic food whether meat or vegetables, the cost maybe higher, but my health is more important in a long run.
