Would you?
Could you?

I couldn't stop myself from ordering the world's first GMO tomato seeds, and it's likely the first GMO edible plant aimed exclusively (so far) at the home gardener.

What say you?

NPR said:
a tomato the color of a concord grape with plum-colored flesh. It looks otherworldly, maybe Photoshopped. But it's not.

This nightshade is purple because its creators at Norfolk Plant Sciences worked for about 20 years to hack color genes from a snapdragon flower into the plant.


I guess I'm eating GMO corn and wheat every day...
So, sure- I'll try it!
