Seedless grapes vs the well-known supplement Grape Seed extract….does anyone see the irony?
This is a prime example of why I advocate for primarily eating only those fruits which have seeds. Seeds are part of the fruit and have their own health benefits. It enables a fruit to reproduce. They allow a fruit to reproduce on its own, vs seedless ones which require human assistance via grafting or parthenocarpy.
If 50% of the female population was barren, wouldn’t we think there was something wrong?
Most grapes, oranges, and watermelons in the store are now seedless. But of course, grafted fruits are still healthier than bagged cookies any day.
You influence & change the food landscape by what YOU choose to buy. Remember your power as a consumer.
