                                Since January 2022, food manufacturers have been required to use a new term to disclose the presence of genetically modified ingredients, with an estimated 70-75% of processed foods in the U.S. containing them. This new labeling term used for GMO foods is "bioengineered" (BE), introduced under the USDA's National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard.
