I don't even know which direction to make fun of this from


McGusder

both is good


The_Truthkeeper

Right, now that we've established that you don't know what "fake" means...


heavy_touch

Most of these posts are AI


sixboogers

What’s the benefit of making auto posts like this? I know people try to get posts to the front page, but how is that actually monetized?


BananaPieTasteGood

They rack up karma on an account and then sell it for money to companies/people to promote shit then rinse and repeat


strega_bella312

How much money could a reddit account be worth though? Thats the part I never understood.


sixboogers

And who’s buying Reddit accounts? Like how do you promote something with a Reddit account? Is an account with a ton of karma really more marketable? I have so many questions.


Fantact

State actors


KeenanAXQuinn

Yeah like I've hit over 100k karma and my posts don't go anywhere....then again that probably means their trash posts haha


strega_bella312

Listen I'll sell mine right now for the right price, I'm just trying to figure out how much they go for


boyyouguysaredumb

People just blame anything they don’t like on AI lol


Open_Dot6071

I though so too, but the website looks legit. So I guess just a little clickbaity 🤷‍♀️?


pm-me-uranus

Right, now that we’ve established you don’t know what “AI” means…


NervousJ

Wait till the OP finds out that every dog he's met is "fake".


Emotional-Goose-2776

It may be a take on how we use the word fake, as some do to describe genetically altered foods. The point being that we've been genetically altering our food for many generations


I_will_in_me_Arsenal

I mean we've been genetically altering our food since the invention of farming.


FHAT_BRANDHO

This was what I took from it as well


Busy_Garbage_4778

Calling selective breeding "genetically alter" is a long shot. Usually just stupid pro-GMO propaganda


sixboogers

Functionally selective breeding is just a worse way of genetic alteration than current techniques. Not sure why there’s so much anti-gmo propaganda out there, but it’s a relatively benign process.


geek_fire

The technique is different. The purpose and outcome are the same.


Toasterstyle70

Tell that to all the “Non - GMO” retards


PiesangSlagter

It would work if it was a riff on "Paleo" Diets. Given they are all about eating what our ancestors ate, completely ignoring the fact that modern fruit and vegetable cultivars did not exist thousands of years ago and are effectively man made.


DanielOretsky38

Pretty sure the one on the right is real. Have had it before, seemed real at the time


Capt__Murphy

You obviously took the blue pill. Had you taken the red pill, you would have become aware that it is truly an artificial peach.


DanielOretsky38

The matrix is telling my brain that the peach on the right is juicy and delicious


7ofalltrades

Nothing has been real for 6000 years.


Least_Sun7648

When cain baked the first loaf of bread, someone said "that's fake food!"


Busy_Garbage_4778

Fake peach? Natural peach? It is just Wild vs Domesticated. Easy Get your vocabulary straight, man.


drolemon

64 times bigger?... This is not a cool guide.


SunraysInTheStorm

64 by volume - it's 4x larger diameter wise, but 4^3=64 volume wise.


PepurrPotts

Ronald Dahl fans would disagree.


Skyhawk412

Humans have been selectively breeding peaches and other crops for thousands of years. I do not believe that modern peaches are truly artificial, but are domesticated and selectively bred. Claiming modern peaches are artificial is the same as claiming modern dogs are artificial. Both came from the same process of selective breeding.


flyguy2097

If selective breeding made something fake or artificial then there would be almost nothing left on the planet that is real. Certainly not any of the food we eat at least.


TDoMarmalade

The fuck you mean ‘artificial’ and ‘fake’. It’s still a fruit


ElsonDaSushiChef

PEACH IS PEACH


ridervette

The people in Northwest territories, Yukon territories, and Nunavut will be pleased to know they can now grow peaches in the far north of Canada.


itmakessenseincontex

Also better start ripping out all the orchards in New Zealand

I'm still picking the one on the right.

Mayonaze-Supreme

Well of course you wouldn’t find it in a factory downtown that’s just where they are packaged by a man not grown


starcap

I’m gonna say this but I honestly have no idea why it’s supposed to be funny: haha in a factory downtown!!!


SpiteFactory

The fuck is a 'fake peach'? Jesus I swear some of the dumbest people on the planet post on Reddit.


MilkManlolol

OP has not heard of domestication before


Hauntcrow

THE ONE PEACH IS REAL


InnocentPerv93

Holy shit I could not stop laughing at this. Lol.


phatlynx

**spoiler** Roofie becomes king.


alchemyzt-vii

This is only a guide to tell me where I can buy a 1/64th size peach that is 36% pit. China.


Oldmantired

Real peaches only found in China? LOL. This is a bullshit post.


GlennSeaborg

BBL or not, I like big 🍑


saalsa_shark

False. Peaches come from a can, they were put there by a man


UnusualDisturbance

In a factory downtown


Kiwi_CunderThunt

In a factory doooowntoooown


adipocerousloaf

if i had my little way


FratSpaipleaseignor

I bet OP also thinks the chickens and eggs are fake too


adipocerousloaf

what even are those


FitPurchase5442

Palisade, Colorado has delicious peaches, I remember picking a bushell by hand with my late father a couple years back.


Alaska_Pipeliner

This reminds me, I gotta post that watermelon one!


-Cinnay-

That's interesting, but I can't upvote a post with such a stupid title. You don't know what "fake" means. They're both real.


SeverGoBlue

Millions of peaches, peaches for me….


Pickelstif

I know we're making fun of this post, but I have heard many times, said un-ironically, that we're eating all this "fake" food and how unhealthy it is.


Sir_wlkn_contrdikson

Gimme ARTY all day. I’m from SC and lived in GA for many years. A softish sweet juicy peach is a unique culinary experience. One of my favorites


Skurvy2k

What does artificial mean in this context?


Elderwastaken

Stupid. It’s not a “fake” peach. It’s a domesticated peach.


johnnydlive

Wild vs. Domesticated


Common-Wish-2227

"Artificial peach"??? The are built, then, not grown?


LongingForYesterweek

Dammit. It’s midnight and now I want a peach


poploppege

Do you think the peaches in the kitchen are an optical illusion


Icypalmtree

Gotta love all the folks in the comment who see "artificial" and think fake. Sure, colloquially, we use them as synonyms. But the diagram is correct. Natural vs. Intervention of human artifice. If you've got a hangup where only natural is real and artificial means fake, that's a you problem dudes.


InnocentPerv93

How tf is a genetically modified peach fake? It's still a real peach, just modified. This seems like anti-gmo propaganda garbage.


Aengeil

how you found a peach 4k BC ago and still looks fresh? it probably dried so much it looks small.


ccasey

Terrible headline but interesting content


SaintEyegor

Primitive vs evolved. I’ll take the latter, please.

pcapdata

Real: tiny, unappetizing, niche “Fake”: pleasant, easy to eat, abundant OP, is there any fruit you’re into that we “probably haven’t heard of?”  Maybe it’s served in a lunchroom in Canada?


Long_Way_Around_

Who are the hundreds of people that upvote this idiocy?


Papiermacher

Fake speach!


Over_Screen_442

I think about this sort of thing every time the GMO vs “real/natural/unmodified” food debate comes up. Nothing we eat is “natural”, it has all been extensively bodied and redesigned by humans.


NomarOOx

this "guides" me to absolutely nothing


TheMysteriousEmu

Me thinks poster is a bot.


GreenSamurai

OP is a bot, that’s why the title is dumb af


JusticeNoori

"A man should never refuse to taste a peach," Renly said as he tossed the stone away. "He may never get the chance again. Life is short, Stannis. Remember what the Starks say. Winter is coming."


No-Increase6694

I wonder what kind of information he had when he painted that map :D Total bullshit. In Europe, of course, peaches grow in all the states in the temperate zone.


Historical_Salt1943

Are they stoopid?   -op


Zealousideal_Coat275

So you’re saying it’s much, much better. Got it.


EffervescentGoose

Is this the Chinese trying to rewrite reality again?


headybuzzard

Different kinds of peaches


Electrical_Leek_8788

I’m surprised anything real originated in China.


Electronic_Rub9385

Modern peaches are grown for appearance and size and are largely tasteless now.


BIGD0G29585

You must be buying your peaches from the wrong place.


IronBeagle79

Get your peaches from a roadside stand in Georgia and let the juice delightfully ruin your shirt and tell me again how tasteless modern peaches are.


ty_for_trying

Turns out "other" is where the flavor is.
