We all know what they say about "an apple a day", but this one could kill you. Called beach apple, or la manzanilla de la muetre (little apple of death), this tropical Manchineel apple sap contains toxins that can blister skin, ruin car paint and destroy your GI tract. Stick to the Granny Smiths science friends #funfact #deathapple #plantscience #letstalkscience (PC/copyright: Stefano Paterna/Alamy) Thanks to everyone who came to our screening and reception for the "Food Evolution" movie (which comes to theaters soon and we highly recommend seeing it)! We hope you enjoyed it and had some new, open conversations about the pros/cons of both GMOs & organic ag! Special thanks to Alison for attending and the producers and our sponors for allowing us to show the film for free. #feastonfacts #foodevolution #letstalkscience #CLEAR #scicomm #sciencefacts #factsaretruth #neildegrassetyson #GMO #organic See that DNA floating in that vial full of kiwi? We extracted that with things you've got in your kitchen and we'll be showing you how at the Downtown Berkeley Farmer's Market this Saturday @ 12, 1, 2:30. Plus pick up a DNA bracelet kit to teach your kids/friends about DNA base pairing! Both activities are kid friendly and links to instructions are soon to follow. #CLEAR #scicomm #DNA #DNAextraction #Farmersmarket #homescience #kidapproved #letstalkscience #sequencebracelets Our Science on Tap event is happening now!
