I think many people have a narrow view of what GMOs are. Plus, "Frankenfood" is pretty catchy. In the broadest sense, many things are genetically modified. Perhaps not in labs, but take the humble dog for example. There is no doubt that there is something other than nature at work in many breeds of dogs. Certainly, sex is genetic modification at its most primitive.

That a company like Monsanto made use of GMOs before the benefits of GMOs were made apparent to consumers, is really unfortunate.
