A nice reminder that Genetic Modification is cool and people are the ones with poor intentions

Broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage, and kohlrabi are all human-made plants. Weird as that sounds, humans turned B. oleracea into six different plants, depending on what part of the plant was bred to be larger.

B. oleracea (aka wild mustard) was once just another wild plant that grew along the coast of Britain, France, and countries in the Mediterranean. In ancient Greece and Rome humans began replanting the seeds from leafier versions. Slowly, such selective replanting created plants historians think were the ancestors to today’s collard greens or kale. Time and agricultural ingenuity eventually produced the rest.
