Umm, breeding plants to create useful hybrids is one thing, but genetically modifying plants is something very different. Those genes they are putting in your food don't always come from other plants you know.

Secondly, just because humans don't eat a particular plant, doesn't mean that we should contaminate it at will. What about all the other species that might need it to survive.
