Pretty costly mistake.

I don’t have major issues with GM foods but sometimes because you can isn’t a good enough reason.

The problem is, if you can produce a variety of food in the marketplace that doesn’t seed, for whatever reason and these varieties become the standard...what are you left to fall back on should something like this happen? If “natural” and yes I am quoting that because while not bioengineered, no modern cultivate crop ios from from having been manipulated by human intervention at some point along the way, plants aren’t being grown, you don’t have seed for the next year.

If you live in the US you have been eating gentically manipulated foods all your life.

People get panicked by weird science fiction "franken-food" fantasies. Don't worry, Killer tomatoes don't really exist.
