Don’t you think that until the long-term side effects or their absence are not investigated well, a conservative approach to new food products can be considered as rational?
I guess if someone were sufficiently risk averse then it might be rational for them to avoid GMOs, as well as consistently extending this avoidance to many other technologies which have been deemed safe by health authorities but haven’t been around for 80+ years for us to fully be sure of the long term health affects, things like new vaccines, new types of drugs, wifi, 5g, MRI scans, etc
