Frankenstein food, as some call it. Is it possible to
re-engineered our foods to include vitamins and minerals so that it
become a convenient and healthy snack for busy people who are
constantly on the move to enjoy? Are these ready-food
already on the market? Where can I find them?

Quoted :
Are foods derived from GMOs more
nutritious?
To date, all GM foods available commercially are the so-called
first generation GM foods. These have been bioengineered to express
agronomic traits such as pest- and herbicide-resistance and do not
differ significantly from their conventional counterparts in terms
of nutritional contents.
Scientists have developed second generation GM plants with enhanced
nutritional contents. While these have not been commercialized as
yet, several varieties are in the pipeline for regulatory approval.
A good example will be “Golden Rice” that is rich in
pro-vitaminA.
In short, those food which have been modified to have very high
nutritional values is still not out on the market yet, but those
which have been modified to change other properties of the food is
already out on the market.
