Genetically modified papaya
Prohibited in: In the European Union
Reason: Health concerns
The papaya ringspot virus recently threatened the island state’s papaya crop, even though Hawaii has long been known for its beautiful weather and tropical fruit. Although Hawaiian papayas were protected from the virus by genetic modification, this unfortunately led to a decline in overseas sales of the fruit. The European Union has decided to ban all foods containing genetically modified foods, as there are many unknowns about the consumption of these foods. The EU is following the principle of “better safe than sorry” until long-term research has been completed.
