Forget GMO These Guys Want to Completely Redesign Food

09/23/2014 2:07 PM

There are a few startup's dedicated to using computer science to build a database of all known proteins and create and recombine them in the lab to make food more healthy, so they say, and to address world hunger and nutrition shortfalls I presume....Designer food, coming to a restaurant near you soon....

"...Hampton Creek isn't out to genetically modify your food. Instead, the 63-person startup wants to reconstruct it using what nature already has given us. "There are other companies using synthetic biology and genetic engineering to create whole new food ingredients," Zigmond says. "We are exploring the vast world of plants to discover natural compounds that can revolutionize food.""

He who controls the food supply, controls the world.

It may taste good, but I dread the day that...say...a first lady decides that she should be in charge of what we eat, and starts replacing our usual foods with "healthy" lab creations.

I wonder if they mean the same Bill Gates that sponsored Common Core?

You, and Mark, know what I mean.

A white family in the White House would never be subjected to these blatantly racist innuendos.

Get over it.

No matter your political views, a black family lives in the WHITE House.

I missed it.

Anyway, I was referring to the, (dictated), school lunches, that now have kids in full rebellion since they have been forbidden from bringing a lunch from home.

...along with Gates' blatant self interest, and the cozy relationship between Monsanto and government.

There are lots of things that have the potential to do good, only to be abused and corrupted by the political/ corporate oligarchs.

SE has never been able to handle any dissent from what he believes is good.
