Human beings have been making genetic modifications to food for generations. In fact, ever since man went from hunting and gathering to farming, he has altered the genetic make-up of food for his own convenience. Genetic modification has traditionally been done by selective breeding - a plant that exhibits traits you desire is the plant whose seeds you save, or from which you take a cutting to root. If you repeat this for enough successive generations of plants, you will get many plants with that desired trait.
