Hello Dolly: Genetic Engineering
In recent years, cross-bred vegetables have been in vogue, especially in cities and fashionable restaurants. Some are designed to be “cancer-fighting” vegetables since they’ve been created with enhanced phytochemical properties. But a lot of what we eat is genetically modified, even if it doesn’t get the same press. In 1998 the government gave the green light to genetically altered soybeans, cotton, corn, summer squash, potatoes, canola oil, radicchio, papayas, and tomatoes. Today 32 percent of the soybean crop has been genetically manipulated.
The idea of genetically engineered food isn’t new. For centuries plants and animals have been selected and bred to yield better food. You remember Dolly, the cloned sheep, and the dozens of cloned mice created in 1998. While cloning is now getting headlines, it has long been used to create superior vines for the production of high-quality grapes and wine. Perhaps through some of these new methods, scientists can create foods that provide the B6 and folic acid we need to prevent heart disease.
