I love your ideas! Naturally, the genetic companies circumstances have always interested me. And I'm perfectly serious! No one would touch corn (much to the dismay of the Atkins diet publisher)nowadays if everything tasted like the 'maize' of yesteryear. And only eat those tough and stringy wild turkeys at Thanksgiving? YUK! Give me better, cheaper food anyday. Most people have no idea how our foods have evolved from decades ago. Heck...most wouldn't even know that a hundred years ago there were only a fraction of the common dog breeds that exist today! Poor fido...the product of genetic engineering!! The genetics companies HAVE to counter their mad scientist image with some common-sense, logical images that everyday folks can 'swallow'...pun intended! Your friend and cousin, Mary hi, Pat!
