Default Biotech Wish List
(jitney) wrote in message . com...
Instead of screwing the world's poor with nightmares like the
"Terminator Gene," wouldn't it be great if the biotech firms could
come up with things like:
1) Splice together the bottom of a carrot and the top of a
cabbage.

Radish with a tender top.

Right now, radish can be cooked like turnips (except a lot better
tasting) and the tops can be chopped and cooked as greens, but they
aren't any tastier than collard greens by the time the bottem is ready
for harvest.
