Corn, growing in the field,
Was altered, to increase its yield,
By making it resist its pests
Fungi, beetles, and the rest.
But now, scientific powers
Were used, not to benefit the growers,
But for the consumers' good:
To provide healthier food.
By manipulating genes,
A new potato hit the scene,
Which, in French fries on your plate,
A carcinogen eliminates...
What is more, when it is used,
This potato does not bruise!
And to enhance its interest,
It is resistant to its pests.
Lacking any side effects,
And providing benefits?
Who could such results expect?
It seems quite a prodigious feat!
Will the public with joy greatoh
Accept this gene=altered potato?...
