Why tomatoes of the present have no taste?

They may have a bright red color and an almost perfect shape, but most of the time, tomatoes have no taste at all.
At which point the tomatoes ceased to have taste and why?
After the post-war period, countries put great emphasis on increasing production to meet the needs of the population,They introduced resistance genes to diseases present in traditional varieties,backcrossing the varieties they liked and discarding things that did not interest them.
The implementation of these improvements resulted in more pest-resistant tomatoes, colorful, homogeneous in size and resistant to transport and storage, buuuuut, they lost their taste.This was involuntary,they didn't know where the taste of the tomatoes were.
Fortunately, they've discovered new genes that could recover the taste of tomatoes,so,there's hope for the future.

Carrefour stops selling panga in Spain


Earlier this week, the Belgian division of Carrefour reported through a statement that it stopped putting on sale panga because of environment reasons.

The French source explained that while the quality of the poultry offered for sale was "flawless", there were doubts about the control mechanisms of the farms where it is grown (the vast majority in Vietnam) to prevent waste from polluting its waters.

Spain, deficient in trade of fish, is the EU country that more panga imported in 2015
