In Finland there should always be a label if they were genetically-modified and we don't see the labels at all, but open your eyes and wacth the fx. apples you can see that they are genetically -modified and somehow it comes in the country...so look around you and you see the usual apple and the other and the difference between them. People don't buy them so the merchant don't buy it in.
