There is more of a new vitamin in veggies and fruit and that is vitamin S; S for sugar. I noticed lately that little grape tomatoes taste more like grape than tomato! Other offenders are corn and green peas; corn that is so sweet that it doesn't taste like corn. Oranges that are too sweet. Grape fruits that have lost tartness. Even lemon is sweeter. I read that even soya bean has changed to be sweeter and it has less protein. Probably it is the same for most pulses; they have modified them to cook faster so they have more starch and less protein.
