Just for the record I donāt consider the early development of corn as a GMO. I do know the difference between purposeful cross breeding and selective breeding and purposefully messing with a plants genetic sequence in the lab. The only point I was actually trying to make is the development of Corn or Maize is just one of the evidences that pre-Columbian cultures were more advanced than what modern textbooks and popular beliefs tend to show. That was all
Btw, this comment flies in the face of what has been the common perception of pre-Colombian cultures. Itās only been in the last few decades that the realization of an intercontinental roadway that linked many if not most of the major cultures in the New World. It was the work of agricultural historians (too tired to remember the real term) researching corn that helped drive some of the research One of my passionate areas in which I tend to annoy people is History which means I can be pedantic and boring all at the same time!
Edit: Nutritional Anthropologist finally popped into my head.
My coworkers have a weekly SPAM ritual, and they were excited at the idea of my engraving our corporate logo into it. After all the good points made about lasering food (ash particles contaminating it, etc.) as well as the smell of burning SPAM Iāve decided that instead of lasering it directly, Iām going to create a special, food-safe stamp with our corporate logo so they can stamp the SPAM before they toast it. Iāll use the same putty and process @dan used in Feeling a little gelty.
