Interesting, though I fear if this becomes mainstream, the producers will just optimize food for good readings. Does that mean good food? I would bet not. It's the same as with roses which nowadays look beautiful, but smell like - nothing. Unless they put a drop of perfume on it (which they sometimes do).
- xeromal 10y agoI read about Red Delicious apples a while back. Everyone I've met hates them so why do they have such a bold name? Turns out back in the day they were delicious, but farmers have aimed towards making larger and redder apples at the expense of taste so now we have beautiful red delicious apples that taste like ass and have the texture of apple sauce.
