Genetically Modified Broccoli Shrieks Benefits at Shoppers

Bremerton, WA - A head of genetically modified broccoli shrieked its
numerous benefits at shoppers Monday in a Seattle-area Safeway. "I
contain 40 percent more vitamin A than non-modified broccoli!", the
head screeched at terrified produce aisle customers. "I can fight
off insects and disease without the use of pesticides!" Monsanto,
which produced the vegetable, stressed that genetic-modification
technology is still in its infancy, and that more pleasantly voiced
broccoli should hit store shelves fairly soon.

Bremerton is not considered to be in the Seattle area.
