Whatever happened to breadfruit? Why was that such a thing back in the day but now not so much?

Called durian. Look for it in Asian markets. Smells awful.

In literal terms yes. But "GMO" crops involve horizontal gene transfer, i.e transfer from organisms not compatible

Thank you for saying this. So many people act like they are one in the same.
