Frankenstein food, as some call it. Is it possible to re-engineered our foods to include vitamins and minerals so that it become a convenient and healthy snack for busy people who are constantly on the move to enjoy? Are these ready-food already on the market? Where can I find them?
oredi on our shelves since long ago
just tt they are not specifically marketed as GMF

Quoted :
Are foods derived from GMOs more nutritious?
To date, all GM foods available commercially are the so-called first
generation GM foods. These have been bioengineered to express agronomic
traits such as pest- and herbicide-resistance and do not differ
significantly from their conventional counterparts in terms of
nutritional contents.
Scientists have
developed second generation GM plants with enhanced nutritional
contents. While these have not been commercialized as yet, several
varieties are in the pipeline for regulatory approval. A good example
will be “Golden Rice” that is rich in pro-vitaminA.
In short, those food which have been modified to have very high nutritional values is still not out on the market yet, but those which have been modified to change other properties of the food is already out on the market.
Most of the food is somehow GM esp veg and fruits for longer shelve life.
True...
