Japanese Creating "Super Tuna"

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the delicious-engineering dept.

motherpusbucket writes "The Telegraph reports that Japanese scientists hope to be breeding a so-called 'Super Tuna' within the next decade or so. They have about 60% of the genome mapped and expect to finish it in the next couple months. The new breed will grow faster, taste good, have resistance to disease and will totally kick your ass if you cross them."

    I for one, welcome our new tuna overlords.

    Lets face it, super food will eat you, besides is obligatory.

      Not me. Corporate food either tastes like shit, or has no taste at all. Compare a grocery store tomato (ripened with phosgene gas) to a home grown one. The one from the store tastes like cardboard, the one from the garden is delicious.

    Stupidass n00b moderator. How the deuce can this be redundant if it's the first reference to frickin' laser beams? If you don't like it or if you feel it is too high a score, mod it too high. But to mod it Redundant is just dumb.

    If some admin would be so good as to find out who modded this redundant and pull all their future mod points, you would be doing the slashdot community the greatest of service.

    MOD POST UP in other words.
