Lab Grown Burger Debut
I commented on this particular article and many of the sci-fi fanatics thought I was nuts to think that this was dangerous. They all seem to think that GMO is a great scientific idea that will cure hunger and they think this burger will too.
Now, I'm all for science coming up with new things, and I'm glad there are people out there excited about science in a positive light, but let's stop putting the cart before the horse. If you claim to really know about science, you will understand that you have to test many, many times before you can in fact say that you have something here and even then, you still need to test.
For example, we just recently found out that processed foods (another relatively recent food invention) are bad for us health-wise and there's also evidence that GMO's aren't good for us either. And this is ESPECIALLY true for people with Fibromyalgia because, yes, there's testing that's been done on that too. I think there needs to be A LOT more testing on these burgers, and not just for tastes and price. Let's see if it's healthy to eat too!
Either way, I may just go vegan and become self-sustaining and grow my own concoctions. You know, from an organic garden using real seeds from a real plant and yield a real crop. LOL!
Stay fabulous!
Love and friendship,
Kimberley
