Environmentalists: what food do you eat: organic food, ordinary food, or genetically modified food?

Hermoine asked:

Organic farming does not use fertilizers, or pesticides, and relies on hard manual labor of illegal immigrants. Yields are low and more arable land is needed to feed 7 billion world population.

Growing ordinary food produces more food per acre of land, land usage grows at the same rate as population.

Genetically modified crops are designed to resist pests and yield more harvest. Less arable land saves steppes and forests as habitats for endangered species.

Which kind of food do you feed to your children?
