It's funny how people won't cheap out on something like a mattress or clothing but consistently buy the cheapest food possible which is going into their bodies.

There are only 2 types of people I see who use the word "yummy"

  • People in cooking communities

  • People on Reddit, 4chan, etc.. commenting on women who appear to be under the age of 16

 

Last time I saw this was on the AI image subreddit.

Well golly gee, I guess that means GMO crops that are bred to survive glyphosate and other pesticides must be the same thing then!

All I see here is an attempt to amalgamate GMO's and selective breeding to manipulate public perception... which leads to higher profits.

Ok.. but the reason why people don't like GMOs is because they're bred to be doused in pesticides. They also can cross-pollinate with non-GMO's to create non viable seeds among other things.

Only half of the world’s croplands are used to grow crops that are consumed by humans directly. We use a lot of land to grow crops for biofuels and other industrial products, and an even bigger share is used to feed livestock.

This is a beef and corn problem fueled by subsidies.

A billion dollar industry would never do such a thing.
