Current Event

A super tomato? That's crazy. In London on October 26Th scientists discovered from research that a tomato was changed and made with the nutrients usually in dark berries. With that nutrients this tomato changed to purple in the process. The tomato may possibly fight cancer in mice. Mice that were genetically changed to get cancer and ate the tomato lived an average of 40 days longer than those mice who didn't. Scientist are happy because this information can lead to bigger and better things, maybe even food that can fight cancer for humans. I agree and am happy with this research scientist are doing. I think that genetically changing tomato's or food is brilliant because just from eating we can become healthier.
