Living Traditionally has a great article with very important information to read about GMO fruit. Please check out the link and their site to make sure you are "in the know" when shopping for your fruits.

The new genetically engineered Arctic Apple® was approved by the USDA on February 13, 2015, and like other GMO fruits being approved. It won’t be labeled and won’t have undergone independent safety testing — regulators will rely on the company’s own assessment that the apple is safe for human consumption.

The so-called Arctic apples — which will be available in the Granny Smith and Golden Delicious varieties — are genetically engineered in a way to suppress the production of an enzyme that causes browning when cells in the apple are injured, from slicing, for example.

Now they are trying to approve GMO peaches, pears, cherries, bananas and oranges.

Unfortunately, once approved, these new GMO fruits will appear unlabeled on grocery shelves across the country. One of the bigger cons of GMO is that unless it is one of those weird-looking fruits like black strawberries or giant raisins, there really is no telling at a glance which vegetables, fruit, grain or other crops have been genetically modified.
