# GMO (Garlic Cookies)
GMO—widely also called Garlic Cookies—is a savory gas cultivar known for garlic, onion, fuel, and earthy aromatics that stand apart from sweet dessert cuts even when Cookies genetics appear in the recipe. Savory branding made it a connoisseur talking point of the late 2010s.
A commonly published parentage lists Chem Cookies × Girl Scout Cookies. That bridges Chem/Diesel fuel culture with Cookies structure. Records conflict on Chem Cookies' exact upstream Chem cut; deeper Unknowns stay Unknown rather than inventing a lettered Chem path.
Why GMO mattered: it popularized savory garlic branding and showed Chem × Cookies mashups could dominate conversations beside pure Gelato candy. Live related pages include [Chemdawg](/strain/chemdawg), [Chem 91](/strain/chem-91), [GSC](/strain/gsc), [GG4](/strain/gg4) as parallel gas royalty, and [Sour Diesel](/strain/sour-diesel).
Terpene names often discussed for GMO-leaning cuts include [Caryophyllene](/terpene/Caryophyllene), [Myrcene](/terpene/Myrcene), [Humulene](/terpene/Humulene), [Limonene](/terpene/Limonene), and [Pinene](/terpene/Pinene). Educational only—navigate via Chem Diesel and Cookies family pages as context hubs.
Love The Plant keeps this entry educational: origin notes, published parent models, why the line mattered historically, linked relatives on the live strain list, and terpene names for aroma literacy. No medical claims, no invented lab percentages, and no forced pedigree where sources disagree—Unknown remains a valid and preferred label.
Read linked family and terpene pages for aroma vocabulary and member lists. When two reputable tellings disagree on parents, this library includes a conflict note and refuses to invent lab figures or medical claims for any cut.
