Agri Science Are Genetically modified foods harmful or‚ helpful? In a study in the early 1990’s rats were fed genetically modified tomatoes. Well actually‚ the rats refused to eat them. They were force-fed. Several of the rats developed stomach lesions and seven out of forty died within two weeks. Although the GM tomato has been taken off the market‚ millions of acres of soy‚ corn‚ canola‚ and cotton have had foreign genes inserted into their DNA. Millions of people eat GM foods daily.
