20 August 1999 - heat-modified food

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

Thag: No, Gronk, no! No heat-modified food! Is strange, is bad.
Gronk: Heat modification perfectly safe, Thag. I call it cooking. So good, can add nutrients, can kill pests, can even change inedible roots to haute cuisine.
Thag: I not buy it. Is hidden danger. I demand studies! Interim measure, I demand labeling!
Gronk: No can do, Thag. Writing not invented.
Thag: Is dangerous. I eat modified food, my kids grow up, change whole world. Never same again!
