Yep, if we want to define GMO as selectively bred then all domesticated animals and almost every modern plant food is off the table. It's what humans do.
But yes, gene splicing and herbicide/pesticide resistant junk is what we want to avoid. And it's actually a surprisingly small number of crops that have been tampered with in that way, corn being the major one. Best way is to do some searching online about the specific variety, but for now almost now common vegetables or garden grown foods are GMO. There's no money in it, they focus on major production staple crops.
Hybrids are not GMO. This is essentially the same idea as a mule.
