GMOs

Pro:
-nearly all foods are gmo, and no negative effects have been recorded so far
-foods can be more hardy and resistant, bigger crop yields
-more efficient use of resources
-artificial selection has been around for a long time

Con:
-breeding weed-resistant plants may produce super-weeds/ "GMO" weeds
-GMOs still take just as long to mature as non GMOs
-GMOs could be crossed with allergens that people are not aware of
