We elicit willingness - to - pay information for similar food products that differ only in their content of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Participants in the experiment are a demographically representative sample of French consumers. 35 % of participants are unwilling to purchase products made with GMOs, 23 % are indifferent or value the presence of GMOs, and 42 % are willing to purchase them if they are sufficiently inexpensive. The results contrast with surveys that indicate overwhelming opposition to GM foods. There is a surplus to be gained from the segregation of the market for food products into a GMO - free segment and a segment allowing GMOs.
