I had some Geneti-Flakes this morning for breakfast. Cross-bred with cows to secrete their own milk. Very convenient.

A scare piece by AP to aid the green fascists in preventing improvement in agriculture.

All food is genetically modified. Humans have genetically modified the species that they have domesticated, both plant and animal, for thousands of years.

Now we can just do it more efficiently.

--similar to what it takes to get me to eat corn--run it through a pig and make ham or pork roast----

Remember when Luther Burbank was "a good thing"?

Whoopdie flippin' doo.

Until there is something other than F.U.D. (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) to discourage the consumption of genetically modified food, I'll continue to eat my Spaghetti-O's, thank you.

Han't changed me a bit . . . I don't think.

Let me turn on my web cam . . .

Have you ever had a boysenberry? That's a genetically modified food, done over 100 years ago. Sure is yummy.

[Restore]

I'm sorry, but is there ANY plant or animal that we regularly eat that HAS NOT been genetically modified by some degree (i.e. through breeding)?

Is corn the same corn as the Indians ate? Is our wheat the same as was first eaten by a human being? Are the steers, chickens, lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage et. al. the same as were eaten even 300 years ago?

[kaktuskid]

Or a navel orange (which is seedless)

Psycho Chicken What the cluck?
Buk buk buk buk Buk buk buk buk buk buk
Better run run run run away
Colonel Sanders wants to cook his goose
But Psycho Chicke's still on the loose
they caught him down in Ohio
cut off his head and put him the the oven
they put him in a box right next to a roll
put cole slaw near his feet
and someone took him home
ate him for lunch and he tasted real fine
but the guy who ate him just lost his mind!

[GeekDejure]

. . . and I just found his uncooked head in my Chili. Yikes! Time to sue !!! ;-))

[festus]

That is the whole reason I eat at Taco Bell. Yum.

We need to modify some pigs re: chewing the cud, split hoof, etc., in order to make them 'clean' for observant Jews, and make a mint on kosher bacon & ham.
