What are the common genetically modified vegetables and fruits?

1, papaya:

More than 95 percent of papayas sold on the market are, which may be surprising to many people.

2, soybeans and soy products (including soybean oil)

Non-GMO soybeans are oval, slightly flat. The navel is light brown. Bean size varies. Soymilk is milky white while GMO soybeans are rolled round. The navel is yellow or yellowish brown. Beans are similar in size. Soymilk is light yellow and soy products made from this bean are a little yellow.

3, part of the rice and rice:

In the country to obtain the legal right to plant genetically modified rice in the region is Hubei, long and thin very bright rice may be genetically modified rice. Easily confused with the Northeast "long grain incense".

4, corn and corn oil:

Genetically modified corn sweet and crisp, full, beautiful body shape, head and tail particles are almost the same, commonly known as sweet corn (but not all sweet corn are genetically modified), all imported corn are basically genetically modified corn. Genetically modified corn oil, when you buy corn oil in the supermarket, you can check the label to distinguish whether it is genetically modified corn oil.

5, canola and canola oil:

GMO canola oil rate is high, the country has confirmed that the yellow seed rape Yu Huang 1 and 2. Non-transgenic rapeseed refers to some of the original rapeseed varieties in our country, this rapeseed yield is low, the oil rate is also low.

6, cabbage and chili peppers and so on:

Fushan, big Baotou, which is the country has now been confirmed to contain genetically modified varieties of cabbage.

Extended information:

GM food characteristics:

1, the advantages of

GM food has more advantages: can increase crop yields, reduce production costs, enhance the crop resistance to pests and viruses, etc., to enhance the ability of the crop. Improve the storage resistance of agricultural products, shorten the time of crop development, get rid of the four seasons of supply, break the boundaries of species, and constantly cultivate new species, and produce food that is conducive to human health.

2. Disadvantages

There are also disadvantages to genetically modified foods: the so-called yield increase is not affected by the environment, and if you encounter natural disasters such as rain or snow, it is possible that yields may be reduced even more. Meanwhile, during cultivation, GM crops may evolve into farmland weeds; they may affect other species through genetic drift; and GM foods may cause allergies.
