To find out if a fruit or vegetable is genetically modified read the PLU labels - the little stickers or tags on the produce. If the five digit PLU number starts with "8," the food is either genetically modified or genetically engineered. Don't buy it. Please note that all fruit has a four digit PLU code. This number tells you what kind of fruit it is. If the PLU code has five numbers, the first number represents either organic (9) or genetically modified (8).
I had the numbers reversed in my first post. (9) is good - organic. Buy those foods with five digits that start with (9). (8)is bad as a first digit on a five digit code. Don't buy those.
Sorry for the error!!!
