Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

The FDA evaluates the safety of today's genetically modified fruits, vegetables, and grains for human consumption and takes the position that they are safe unless they differ substantially from similar foods already in use. To help consumers who wish to avoid GMOs, USDA has developed a voluntary certification and labeling system for foods. In application, the system resembles organic food certification. Food producers pay a fee to certify that their product contains no GMO ingredients; after certification, the product may bear a USDA-approved symbol on its label.
