I am not qualified to know what a perfect salad is, but I know a good tomato when I eat one. In the late 1700's, some Europeans thought they were poison.
The battle against GMO's rage on, while the truth is, we eat them here in the USA nearly everyday. The best way to tell if something isn't what you want to eat, is to see if the insects avoid it. If they can eat it, bring me a tomato. GMO or not. True, I would rather have the original most of the time. Just habit. Ha
