These modifications yield a more extensive product or harvest; typically, we see these in fruits and vegetables, but they&#8217;re also prevalent in meat and poultry. GMOs are increasingly common within pet food, especially dogs and livestock, so it&#8217;s up to pet parents to keep these out of their homes and away from their pups!
