I think that McDonald's has a right to use what ever potatoes they want. However there is nothing wrong with GMO's. The same thing can be accomplished with selective breeding. It just takes a lot longer. People have been improving on the original crops since man has been farming. Norman Borlaug by his wheat breeding program has prevented the starvation of millions of people
