The Next Big Apple?

This week in the magazine, John Seabrook writes about the process of building a better apple, focussing on the creation of a new variety “trying to take its place as the next hot apple” called SweeTango. He goes to Minnesota, where the apple was bred, and finds that the SweeTango is “a piece of intellectual property.”
