Do we need to change our food?

I suppose that everyone has ever been in the situation like this. Imagine, you're looking for apples in the supermarket, because your mom told you to buy green ones. As soon as you found the right section you're supefied by the amount of different kinds of apples. You recovered your temper and started looking for the kind of apples you need. Well done! You could distinguish red apples from green. And so, the hardest part began. You had to choose what to buy : big, juicy, shining apples or little, uninviting, wrinkled kind of apples. It goes without saying, you chose the first option, but suddenly your mom's words came to mind "Don't judge the book by it's cover. Buy apples, which looks not like they're printed on the magazine's page but like they're trampled by elephants."
As you came home you decided to find out why couldn't you buy these masterpieces. Here's what you've got :
Genetically modified food. Sounds terrifying. But in practice it's just "food produced  from organisms that had specific changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of genetic engineering."

 Still horrific? 
So, I'm not going to tell you why GM food is bad, I'll tells why it's good.
I - resistant to diseases
II - more env friendly as they require less pesticides 
III - crops have a larger yield
IV - offers more nutrition and flavour
V - capable of thriving in regions with poor soil 
VI - insect resistant
VII - lasts longer than not GM food
It also can help to solve the problem with famine in the world. If it's easier and more profitable to grow GM food, why not to do this? Just because it has some side effects? I don't think that it a big problem, the side effects are becoming more and more seldom, and food itself more and more delicious.
