1.) GMOs are not always tested thoroughly. Meaning a something you don’t want in that organism could be put into it without you knowing.

2.) GMOs aren’t natural which means that organism will be highly unpredictable.

3.) GMOs could affect a organism allergies in unpredictable ways. Making it dangerous.

Hope this helps ^ω^
