The article was probably written by someone who doesn't understand that Cuban Seed does not mean grown in Cuba.

That's my thinking as well.

I don't like when little things like that show up, because it can be read as someone who doesn't know as a bad/good thing.

Not only is it flat incorrect, it throws a bias to something.

While in this case I don't think it was done to do that it can be.

The US media sucks
