Abstract: Seventy-five percent of processed food consumed in the United States contains one of the eight commercially available genetically modified organisms (GMOs); corn, soybeans, alfalfa, sugar beets, canola, cotton, papaya or squash. GMOs are organisms that have been developed by taking the DNA of a desired trait from a particular organism and inserting it into another. i This accepted reality of food production has gradually begun to be challenged as an anti-GMO movement has formed, the conceptualization of which can be understood through the word Frankenfood.Frankenfoods: Conceptualizing the Anti-GMO Argument in the Anthropocene by Catherine Mazanek is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License
