Why does it matter if an apple is modified or not?
In general, I am not opposed to GMOs. All those benefits would be great. But in practice, companies aren’t modifying the product to be better for the consumer, they’re modifying it to sell better, and cost less to produce. That basically means bigger, and less diverse, which actually ends up making them less resistant to pests and disease

the problem isn’t gmo. the problem is the profit motivation that will invite disaster.
Wait until you learn that we’ve been genetically modifying our food via selective breeding for as long as we’ve had agriculture.
And staying “fresh” longer etc.
