Possibly coming to a produce store near you: Monsanto's Cinna-Del, the only GM apple that expresses both cinnamon and sugar, only $26.99 per kilo! Or how about Skippy's Creamy JonaNut, "all the great taste and texture of a Jonathan apple, intermingled with the elements of rich Skippy peanut butter"?
And Mama mia, check out those luscious Pizzamatoes, exhibiting the characteristics of basil, garlic, and oregano.(People of the future, liberate yourselves from your spice-rack oppressors!)
By comparison, those pears in the corner seem positively staid. ::Wired

LOL that's pretty funny, you gotta admit.
who in their right mind would spend time and money investing in THIS?! I can't even imagine people buying it...let alone investing in it! ahaha.
Yeah, those plain old pears do look sad. They're also the most expensive.
I don't know... bio-engineered food repels pests so why not alter the taste for society's trends? You already have individually wrapped, pre-packaged, processed PBJ & individually packaged, de-cored, sliced apples for the "too busy" working suburbanite - so why not engineer ALL food for them? It's the next step and a money maker!
Black, i think i would rather just have a plain apple, thank-you very much. And you know what. when i eat a tomato. I want it to taste like a tomato.
