Golden rice doesn't actually exist, not in any meaningful sense

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It's widespread adoption, almost certainly resulting in the unnecessary suffering of millions of people, has been hampered by anti-scienitific fanatics. So let's not confuse that with there being something wrong with golden rice or it not existing.

But if that isn't enough, we have fast growing salmon, non browning apples, and pink pineapple which are all gmos on the market that don't have to do with pesticides or pest resistance. If we include ones that are simply resistant to viruses, then the list grows substantially more.
