A new kind of tomato was bred to resist rotting and give it a longer shelf life. Potatoes are bred to produce more starch. Soybeans, one of the most common processed-food ingredients, are also one of the most heavily modified food products. Soybeans have been genetically modified to resist disease and pests, or to produce more protein, vitamins, and fat.
