The "ugly vegetable" movement is slowly picking up (or maybe just in my social circle). Like you I grew up with a garden and it never dawned on me until college that people shun "ugly" produce.
I also believe in the promise of GMO food. Unfortunately the business practices of the main players get wrapped in with junk science for many in the anti-GMO crowed. It becomes an involved process to convince someone I don't think that someone's business practices are ethical while I admire the science they do, and isn't always received well.
- fred_is_fred 9y agoMy grocery store has a special shelf for ugly fruits and veggies sold at a discounted rate. I buy when there's something I need.
