Regarding the production process, a distinction can be made between acid-hydrolyzed vegetable protein (aHVP), enzymatically produced HVP, and other seasonings, e.g., fermented soy sauce .
A 2013 review, of 1,783 papers on genetically modified crops and food published between 2002 and 2012 found no plausible evidence of dangers from the use of then marketed GM crops. [ 13 ] In a 2014 review, Zdziarski et al. examined 21 published studies of the histopathology of GI tracts of rats that were fed diets derived from GM crops, and ...
Current Roundup Ready crops include soy, corn (maize), canola, [2] sugar beets, [3] cotton, and alfalfa, [4] with wheat [5] still under development. Additional information on Roundup Ready crops is available on the GM Crops List. [6] As of 2005, 87% of U.S. soybean fields were planted with glyphosate resistant varieties. [7] [8]
Most vegetable oil used in the US is produced from GM crops canola, [159] maize/corn, [160] [161] cotton [162] and soybeans. [163] Vegetable oil is sold directly to consumers as cooking oil, shortening and margarine [164] and is used in prepared foods. There is a vanishingly small amount of protein or DNA from the original crop in vegetable oil.
