Abstract: The study examines the factors the factors that influence Fort Valley State University students’ willing to purchase transgenic meat. Results show that respondents who said they read labels when shopping were more likely to purchase transgenic meat. Results also suggest that respondents who trust scientists to tell them the truth about transgenic meat were more likely to purchase transgenic meat. Respondents who identified themselves as sophomores, however, were less likely to consume transgenic meat.
