"Golden rice" was a variety of custom bred-rice that contained more nutrients, especially vitamin A, than normal rice. Anything that provides better nutrition to a population which is often hungry and generally malnourished is clearly a "Good Thing".

What is golden rice?
Golden rice is a genetically-modified variety of rice which produces beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A) in the rice grain. The presence of the carotene (an orange-yellow pigment) gives the rice its golden colour. In the body, beta-carotene can be used to produce vitamin A. It was developed to prevent diseases such as blindness which can be caused by lack of vitamin A in the diet of poor people. Each year, 250 000 to 500 000 children go blind because of vitamin A deficiency. Golden rice was created by Ingo Potrykus of the Institute of Plant Sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, working with Peter Beyer of the University of Freiburg. However, some people oppose the use of genetically-modified crops, including golden rice, and it has not yet been made available for use. You may view the related links below for more information
