It's literally the same compounds. Proteins are proteins, and it doesn't really matter how they're synthesized. This is why the GMO think is tricky too. Supplanting native varieties is a big problem. But the food is literally the same. There is zero difference because the genetic machinery is building the same proteins in the same way, out of the same elements.
