Agree with the 'plants good' theories. So many micro-nutrients in them like flavonoids, carotenoids, that we know little about, that seem to really help with good health. Unless they mess with one's gut, we need them, but in smaller bundles. There is no excuse for a hybrid apple that weighs 8 ounces and has jacked up sugar content and minimal micronutrients. We need our fruits, but in small sane sizes.
