Even when a tomato smells like a tomato these days you can't tell, if they're
not organic, if they're GMd or what - as it is the organic ones are usually
dreadful - the best I taste ever in my life were Black Russian this year found
in an op shop (unused) they were not only divine the skins melted too drool
drool .......
After all if it looks good and smells good - why not try it?

It's possible that ALL our "Heritage" domestic crops and animals were GMO
some 6,000 years ago or more...making "farming" worth doing.
They can't be de-hyridized back to any wild ancestor and not many can survive
without cultivation.
NO food is safe for everyone, not now. not then, nor before then...and
probably never will be.
I've eaten the *new* GMO foods for many years. Don't know which are which.
No problems so far...even if store tomatoes do taste like cardboard.
You? No way to tell.
Probably HAS harmed a few and probably did 6,000 years ago too.
GMO really should be labeled, but unreasoned fear lumps everything together
preventing it as a "bottom line" issue...like putting a gas mask on 6+ billion
people because 10,000 of them are deathly allergic to a whiff of peanuts.
