Aborted Fetus are Used Today to Create Flavor Enhancers in Foods

For several years anti-abortion advocates have been warning that a new technology for enhancing flavors such as sweetness and saltiness uses aborted fetal cells in the process.

The biotech company using this novel process, Senomyx, has signed contracts with Pepsi, Ajinomoto Co. (the maker of aspartame and meat glue), Nestlé and other food and beverage companies over the past several years.

The primary goal for many of these processed food companies is to make foods and beverages tasty while reducing sugar and salt content.

While Senomyx refuses to disclose the details of the process, its patent applications indicate that part of the secret indeed involves the use of human kidney cells, known as HEK293, originating from an aborted baby.

It’s worth noting that no kidney cells, or part thereof, are actually IN the finished product.4 Rather they’re part of the process used to discern new flavors, which will be discussed below.

That said, to many, this is still “over the line.” Two years ago, anti-abortion groups launched boycott campaigns against Pepsi Co., urging them to reconsider using flavorings derived from a process involving the use of aborted embryonic kidney cells.

In the late 80's I noticed "placenta" as an ingredient in my wife's hair conditioner.

I watched it slowly disappear (it was in other brands also) over the course of a year or so.

I would bet that knowing this makes Pepsi more appealing to most liberals.

ORIGINAL HEADLINE : How Cells from an Aborted Fetus are Used Today to Create Flavor Enhancers in Foods

I have issues with abortion and the selling of fetuses but this headline is deceiving you in no way come in contact with cells from the fetus or the fetus itself in anyway and this is a rehashed article from at least 20 years ago they were experimenting with fetus cells in the 70’s for foods and drinks coke pepsi rc cola just about all your major drink lines have use the same basis in experimentation for flavor enhancement one way or another they have all led back to the fetal cell experimentation now all of a sudden someone rewrites the same article and OHHHHHH its big news

Wake up people cmon
