The Dark Side of Seedless Fruit

Seedless fruit takes away the ability to be self-sustaining. It makes you the consumer more dependent on the grocery stores for survival. When I was a kid almost all my aunts and neighbors had gardens where they would grow fruits and herbs. Everyone knew how to grow their own food and went to the grocery store only for necessities. Now most people use the grocery store for their only means of sustenance.

I’m not saying to stop eating seedless fruit, although if you eat natural it’s definitely healthier. The only way to get naturally grown fruits these days is from local markets. If you buy it from a grocery store, it costs almost triple the price of the gen-mod foods… so it can be expensive. What I am saying, is for a fruit to be seedless it has to be genetically engineered. It’s sterile, infertile and the lasting effects from its consumption are still being debated by scientists. So if you are what you eat, and you’re eating sterile and infertile food…what will happen to you?

  1. It depends on the fruit. Bananas are easy bauesce if the skin is brown they are bad. Buy them slightly green and keep them at home until ripe. That way you know they are fresh. i heard you can make them ripen faster by putting them in a brown paper bag.Apples are the best if the skin is shiny.Avicados are the same as bananas. Buy them firm and green and let them ripen at home. Melons are the hardest. Choose the one with the best looking skin with no soft spots.Strawberries you can tell by just looking at them. Also once you have them at home if one gets moldy you sould throw out the whole punnet.
