    Just a guess but some people differentiate between GMO from selective breeding versus lab-modified products. Don’t quote me on this though.

      I guess most GMOs are transgenic and have genetic contributions from nonhuman animals.

        I’m way out of my depth here but 5 minutes on encyclopaedia Britannica tells me that gmo cotton, corn, soy bean etc has something from a bacteria implanted. So I’m guessing that’s why vegan farming dodges those chimeras.
