New Monsanto vegetables

and you can bet your ass that scientific illiterates will find something to complain about this.

So it’s not particularly surprising that the company is introducing novel strains of familiar food crops, invented at Monsanto and endowed by their creators with powers and abilities far beyond what you usually see in the produce section. The lettuce is sweeter and crunchier than romaine and has the stay-fresh quality of iceberg. The peppers come in miniature, single-serving sizes to reduce leftovers. The broccoli has 3x the usual amount of glucoraphanin, a compound that helps boost antioxidant levels.
