Genetically Modified organism

Genetically modified organisms, GMO's, have been on the rise lately because big companies want to make their food taste better and they want to produce more without having to make any major changes. Milk is a good example of a GMO because the cows that produce the milk are fed genetically modified food. Growth hormones are also given to some animals so they can produce more product. This has been banned in many countries because it is a type of torture towards the animals and it is not entirely safe for humans to consume.
