Have you heard about the Purple Tomatoes? It never seases to amaze me the lenghts that big corporations will go to. The idea around genetically altered food is to get greater antioxidants into the tomato to meet the needs of the market. There are plenty of beneficial fruits in the market already, try a pomagranate or better yet, the acai berry (hard to find? check out www.mymonavie.com/midwestmonavie or Whole Foods in larger cities). Natural solutions that are already around. I would never eat a genetically altered veggie!

there are actually old heirloom varieties that are purple.

Such B.S. that we need genetic modification to save the world. What a crock!
