By some estimates, 80 percent of all processed foods -- cereals, baby formula, canned soups and more -- contain at least one GMO, or Genetically Modified Organism. But whether GMOs are safe and whether they should be listed on the label has led to a very big food fight. CBS Cover Story is from Barry Petersen:
Delan Perry's papaya farm on the Big Island of Hawaii may be a bit off the beaten path. But it's smack in the middle of a worldwide debate about one of life's essentials: the very food we eat.
His papayas, like almost all those now grown on the Big Island, are GMOs -- genetically-modified organisms.
"I'm sure their first question is, 'Is it safe?'" asked Petersen.
"We say, 'Of course!'" laughed Perry. "Been eating it, my kids have been eating it for 20 years now."
