Like eating corn? People can still eat corn because a new genetically altered version can resist insects that destroy the crop according to supporters of genetically altered food. Those against it say that the genetic change that saved the corn contains a poison that kills butterflies. Author Kathiann M. Kowalski explores the worldwide debate over whether genetically altered foods are healthy or harmful to human beings, animals, plants, and the environment.
