    eww! Yucky! That’s so weird and random.

    That is just scary. Tinkering with food that never needed to be tinkered with. Reminds me of King Corn. Eeep!

  • OOOOOHHHH!!!!! YOU’VE SEEN KING CORN?!!! That is awesome! I am from Iowa (about 30 mins from where it was filmed!) It is an amazing documentary!

  • scary…I wonder why would anyone buy that crap…let’s continue to rape nature!

    I don’t want to eat that crap and will do just fine with real food.

    However, I prefer this method to genetically modifying the orange to include anchovy traits. In this method their experiment can’t “escape” and cross pollinate with other species.

  • thanks for the post greenie. :)

    Ugh.Why can’t we teach people how to eat healthy, full, rounded diets instead of treating them like ignorant children and sneaking in nutrients then using it as a marketing ploy? If we didn’t deplete our soils and engage in harmful farming practices our whole foods would be more healthy and abundant and there would be less need for tampering…but then how would big business make more money? Sorry for the rant, certain things just get under my skin. I keep up hope that educated (school or self taught, education comes in all forms!), healthy members of society are perceived well by others and healthier, more holistic ways of living are picked up over time :)

    Blessings.

    I found this part very interesting:

    Are we really that close to a world in which food functions as a nutrient delivery system, made possible by microencapsulation and fine-spray coating? And what would this mean for food and human nutrition?”

    Imagine that – food functioning as a nutrient delivery system?! :D
