Grocery List

Intructions: On your next visit to the grocery store, make a list of genetically altered foods that are on sale for public consumption.

Genetically altered foods are mostly plants that have been modified in the laboratory to enhance desired reactions such as resistance to herbicides or improve nutritional content. Some advantages of genetically modified foods are that they are pest resistant, disease resistant, cold tolerance, drought tolerance and nutrition. 

List of foods: 
1) Cantalope
2) Soybeans
3) Corn
4)Lettuce
5) Peppers
