    That’s what’s happening with bell peppers and giant strawberries, isn’t it?

    Or tomatoes. They don’t deliberately grow them bigger and more watery, but they did breed them for transport and automated harvest for decades. So now we have wooden, watery tomatoes that taste of nothing.

      Also for appearance, they look perfectly round and red so people buy them, instead of the retarded looking half green tomatoes from the farmers market that taste amazing.
