I couldn't care less about the nutritional thing. What a gorgeous picture.

Corn is the perfect example of how genetic engineering works. Who decided that corn should be yellow anyway?skatingfan wrote: ↑Sun Jun 16, 2024 12:42 am I'd never be able to eat any of that - it's just wrong.
That said I totally understand. I would have a hard time eating "real" corn too.

Re: Random, Random 2.0
Nobody decided that corn should be yellow. In Venezuela, Colombia and Africa, a lot of white corn is grown.
Imagine if people were to mix different colors of corn to make their flour. Which flour would you buy? How would you know it was in good condition or had gone bad, as opposed to "this comes from blue corn"?

I think in the States most corn sold to the public has yellow kernels. I have seen white corn but only in high end supermarkets.ponchi101 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2024 9:04 pm Nobody decided that corn should be yellow. In Venezuela, Colombia and Africa, a lot of white corn is grown.

Re: Random, Random 2.0
The second tweet looks a bit photoshopped to me. Meaning, the chigüires are pasted on it (that is how we call them in Venezuela).

But why were they parading down a city street at very early o'clock in the morning? Is that something they do?
