All the misguided hippies are up in arms about GMO crops when the new GMO apple that doesn't brown has a similar genetic trick to the seedless watermelon.

I'm so sick of anti GMO Facebook posts when the people posting don't even seem to understand the problem of Monsanto suing farmers over a patented seed is much bigger than apples turning you into a cancer ridden octopus person. If I didn't know the people on my Facebook I would think its the worst website in the world. So I mostly talk to strangers on hubski. Most of you are more interesting than my friends. Thanks.
