Researchers at Ohio State University have developed a way to use food waste to partially replace the petroleum-based filler that has been used in manufacturing tires for more than a century.
Restoring The Taste Of Tomatoes
Over the years, tomatoes have been selectively bred for qualities such as size and firmness for shipping purposes and appearance, but selection for flavor has generally been overlooked.

Comparing them to the delicious local-grown varieties we can find during the summer provides evidence for this conclusion.
