'http://www.bestfoodfacts.org/food-for-thought/Video-GMO-Right-To-Know Best Food Facts gathered questions from consumers about foods grown using genetically-modified organisms. From those questions, we developed a five-part video series to address the many angles of this topic, including general information, food safety, nutrition, labeling and environmental impacts. This video dives into the topic of putting labels on food products indicating whether they\'re made from genetically engineered foods like corn, soybeans, canola and cotton. Those in favor of GMO labeling say it\'s a matter of \"right-to-know.\" Those opposed to it say it could invoke fear in consumers and offers no additional nutritional information. Dr. Ruth MacDonald, chair of and professor in the department of food science and human nutrition at Iowa State University and Chicago mom Joelen Tan of What\'s Cookin\', Chicago? discuss the possibility. What do you think? We\'re interested in understanding what additional questions you have for Dr. MacDonald. Feel free to submit questions below or at http://www.bestfoodfacts.org/food-experts/ask-an-expert.
