What’s striking here is that the idea of breeding cotton for edible cottonseed wasn’t some gee whiz inspiration of the biotech era; this is a project going back 70 years.

We’ve been producing cotton with cottonseed packed with fat and protein that we just couldn’t fully utilize going back 7,000 years ago to the Kachi Plain of Balochistan, Pakistan, in the sixth millennium BC.

“I met with the potato growers at the time, telling them my situation and how I was going to call it quits, but they basically told me that they weren’t going to let me quit and would pull me through,” he says.

The homemade yogurt is not too sour and not too sweet, and it’s topped with handfuls of Moko’s so-called freestyle granola that “changes based on ingredient availability and mood,” she says.

Some people with skin issues stay away from fatty foods. However, it is important to note that not all fats are the same.

During the early 20th century, the Soviet plant breeder Vasilii Stephanovich Pustovoit began selecting sunflowers for oil content. In 1913 seeds contained approximately 30% oil, by the late 1950s seeds contained approximately 50% oil. Much of the change was achieved by breeding for thin hulls surrounding the kernels.
