thats right, orange carrots for the Dutch. I think it's acceptable to cross pollinate and then selective from that. Nature is the most effective filter for what works and what doesn't. It's clear the solving world hunger meme doesn't stack up with what we already produce. We don't need to produce more than we need, only as much as we need and we can already do that. It's the distribution that is the problem. And the reasons we know.

Using natures laws to modify the plant world for the betterment of mankind, is far different than muddying the terminology with misleading labeling, by declaring genetic modification the same.

So once again you are wrong, genetic modification implies using unnatural means to modify what nature would allow. Or maybe you go out and fornicate with your corn in those Iowa cornfields and expect the same result as when some geneticist injects human dna into corn plant cells.

In the last year or so I have discovered Chinese Broccoli. I would think that is a natural vegetable and that it escaped the genetic manipulations of the Romans--but there is no way to be sure. Probably has undergone some Chinese genetic manipulations. I think it tastes better than ordinary Roman/American broccoli.

It was genetically modified in the 6th century by Rome.

There is a difference between genetic modification and breeding. Broccoli was bred, not genetically modified.
