Abstract
The debate regarding the potential of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and their application to genetically engineered foods has gone on for decades. As more consumer products that are the complete or partial result of GMO processes are introduced into markets, the controversy over GMO foods will continue to intensify. One of the primary areas of contention has been legislating how, if at all, to label these foods. This Essay will focus on some of the legal aspects of the debate that stem from the scientific concerns about GMOs and how these concerns affect the regulation of labeling such GMO products by the United States and the European Union.
