Israeli researchers produced a genetically engineered tomato that tastes with its hint of lemon and rose aromas. Nearly 82 people have tested the experimental fruit against unmodified counterparts. It describes as perfume, rose, geranium and lemon grass.
When put to taste,
- The genetically modified tomatoes were preferred by 49 members
- Unmodified tomatoes were preferred by 29 members
- Four expressed no preference.
Genetically modified tomatoes, have only a light red color because they have only half as much lycopene as conventional tomatoes. It may have longer shelf life and need less pesticide to grow.
