space vegetables are grown from seeds that have been taken to and brought back from outer space. the seeds are affected by the radiation (辐射) and low gravity (重力) in outer space. when they are brought back to earth, these seeds produce vegetables that are bigger, healthier and more nutritious than normal vegetables. however, some people worry about eating space vegetables. they think that space vegetables might not be good for us and could give us cancer as a result of their exposure (暴露) to radiation in space. people should not be scared, though, as space vegetables are actually perfectly healthy.
here are some facts that you should know about space vegetables:
space vegetables are grown from seeds that are carefully selected. when seeds are brought back from space, they are tested to make sure that the vegetables they grow will be safe to eat. there are no traces (痕迹) of radiation after testing.
space vegetables are better for you than normal vegetables. for example, space tomatoes stay fresh for twenty days, which is one week longer than normal tomatoes. another popular space vegetable is the peppers. space peppers contain 20 per cent more vitamin c than normal peppers.
after gm foods came onto the market, people worried that they were eating unknown things. for example, if nut genes are put inside potatoes, people allergic to nuts might get very sick from eating these potatoes because they do not know they are also eating nuts. unlike genetically modified foods (转基因食品), space vegetables have not been genetically changed. this means that no new genes are put into the vegetables. therefore, there are no dangers of eating something unknown.
