Shelves stacked with GM foods
Call for mandatory labeling of products to protect consumers
Although the typical Chinese kitchen is now likely to have many food ingredients that have been genetically modified (GM), awareness of the issue remains poor among the public, the latest online survey has found.
More than 55 percent of the nearly 1,000 respondents said they had scarce knowledge of GM food, the survey conducted by China Daily and Sohu.com showed last week. At least 52 percent said they were unaware of the prevalence of GM food in their lives.
