According to a survey of more than 1,000 Americans conducted by the International Food Information Council, about half said they try to avoid GMOs.
More than one-third (36 per cent) admitted they know very little or nothing at all about bioengineered or genetically-modified foods, identical to the number who said they know at least a fair amount.
Forty seven per cent said they avoid GMO foods at least somewhat.
Most (85 per cent) of those who avoid GMOs cite health concerns, with the environment (43 per cent), animal health (36 per cent) and agriculture/farming (34 per cent) following.
The survey also gathered information on statements on labels and found they are shopping for:
All Natural (100 per cent) Natural or Natural (71 per cent)
Raised without Antibiotics (71 per cent)
Sustainable (62 per cent)
Locally Sourced (61 per cent)
USDA Certified Organic (60 per cent)
Too bad they didn't ask how many of the skeptics voted for Trump.
