Companies Stop Using Abortion Cells to Test Artificial Flavors

Washington, DC -- Since a pro-life group announced that a biotech firm, Senomyx, is using aborted fetal cell lines to test their artificial flavor enhancers, two companies have announced they have disaffiliated with the firm.

Pepsi’s response: “PepsiCo wrote: “We hope you are reassured to learn that our collaboration with Senomyx is strictly limited to creating lower-calorie, great-tasting beverages for consumers. This will help us achieve our commitment to reduce added sugar per serving by 25% in key brands in key markets over the next decade and ultimately help people live healthier lives.” “

Sorry Pepsi, no that doesn’t reassure me. In fact I’d rather have the full amount sugar in HFCS...no in fact double it...if that means you stop working with Senomyx using aborted fetal cells.

After reading the article, it sounds to me that Pepsi dosent have a problem with the use of aborted cells. Or am I reading something into their statement that wasn’t there??

I want to know what the cost of buying the dead infants at the planned parenthood or other death mills is?

Are the killed infants shoved into garbage bags and left for vultures to simply grab up?

Or are they sorted and priced according to age in mommy's tummy at death, their weight, race, whatever? What do they cost?

Do abortion clinics have price lists for the babes they kill? Is there a profit in this industry related to selling little murdered bodies?

Or, as asked before, do the researchers and others wanting the little mutilated bodies simply take them from the garbage bins at the back of the clinics?

There actually is a price list. I will see if I can find a copy to post here. The organs are each priced seperately & intact fetal bodies bring in the most $$$. They are sold to univerisites and/or pharmaceutical companies for their ghastly research projects.

Oh my gosh! Are the women who opt to kill their infants given a part of this profit? Any way to find out how much, say the planned parenthood death mill MAKES from these little slaughtered bodies?

Morbid curiosity bookmark.

Wouldn’t such an incentive change the way in which the infants are murdered in order to produce intact cadavers?

Shouldn’t this raise ethical conflict of interest issues for people who believe abortion is okay? If a baby is truly just a blob of cells, shouldn’t the first interest of the attending “physician” be the comfort and (relative) safety of the mother? By that logic, any extra steps or changes in procedure would require the informed consent of the mother, would it not? Hypocrisy abounds.

Not only is there a price list, it's a very big business.

A major factor in partial birth abortion is to have undamaged bodies for use in research. Live birth abortion of course provides an intact baby.

This has been going on for decades by the way. And if the demons have their way it will only get bigger.

First it was only going to be in research for vaccines. Then it was acceptable for use in beauty products. Today the "gold standard" as PepsiCo calls it permits it to be used to develop "better products" No dead babies go in the products, mind you but are used in the development of "better product"

When will Soylent Green become reality--if it has not already?

>> Pepsi: “We hope you are reassured to learn that our collaboration with Senomyx”

Up yours, Pepsi. In light of your depraved relationship with Senomyx, I will no longer purchase your products.

BTW Pepsi, have your aborted children made to the flavor labs? Do you taste your own?

Or maybe we should ask the Pepsi execs this question:

To all Pepsi executives:
 
"Aren't you glad your mother didn't have an abortion?"

This is Third Reich science.

While microwaving a pastry danish the other day, I was reminded of a video where Nazis ‘scientists’ microwaved live prisoners. I suppose today, they carve out the prisoners from the womb and use the remains for flavor enhancement.

Some people try to say boycotts don’t work, but often times, they do. Let’s keep boycotting evil.
