>>> There's research to be done on what makes plants tastier, and there's work to be done in applying such research.

there's earth, rain and sun and millions of years or R&D already done and proven successful. I really wonder what kind of research youo want...

What you may want is : tasty food for everyone on earth. But that's not science, that's much more politics.

Don't know if you're being a troll but in fact there's a lot of research to be done. https://www.collective-evolution.com/2016/02/11/this-is-what...

A lot of food that we eat today evolved really fast after we started to care about their taste and only select the ones with the properties we want. We're talking about maximum 10k years of fast evolution for human taste, not millions of years.
