Honestly curious, where in the world do you live? Equating sustainable with lower quality is really odd to me and I don’t think anywhere at least in Northern Europe.
If companies are producing just to get the lowest cost, it ends up being trash. Whenever anyone aims for sustainable products it’s obvious it will come at a higher price and quality becomes essential. That’s at least wha we see in all the sustainable products here
Ridiculous. The aspect of being genetically modified or not has by itself no influence on parameters of taste. At the local supermarket, you will be hard pressed to find "lab grown GMOs" in any produce section - most of it is grown in southern Sweden using traditional high yield crops (that may taste like nothing for reasons of production).
The Swedish Food Agency[1] states that there are very few genetically modified products on the market at all.
Most of the produce in Sweden is imported. I do love my seasonal berries though, they taste great. Everything else, from tomatoes to letuce/cucumbers and other daily produce taste like nothing.
You can try to refute that but it's a fact. I've lived in the Mediterranean so i have something to compare against.
It's not normal to leave an apple on the counter and look the same after a month.
Is this code word for "it's gonna be trash"?
