Genetically modified rice from human liver DNA being grown in Kansas

Bon Appetit!

Why?

Why mix human DNA with rice……just why?

They have really just messed up one of my favorite side dishes and sushi is messed up forever!

Seriously, I am about three stomach spasms from vomiting and there is nothing I can do or say that will stop it! Seriously, no liver or cannibal jokes.

Rice, coined “Frankenrice” made from the liver DNA of humans for use in Pharmaceuticals and approved by the FDA to be grown in open fields in Kansas! Have we lost our ever loving minds? Have we just gone off the moral cliff to the point of no return?

As a child, growing up near farms, I witnessed my grandfather pour pig brains over his scrambled eggs for breakfast! Up until now, I thought that was, well it still may be the grossest thing I had ever witnessed. But still it had no human element to it and it was still an animal and you didn’t have to shake Tobasco hot sauce on it to make it more palatable.

Who in their right mind would think up some concoction? Yeah, they are saying it is not for human consumption but they are already making plans to ship it to starving children in Sudan, yeah sort of like Mikey from the Life cereal commercial fame, “give it to Mikey, he will eat anything!

I have a little medical knowledge and know even less about farming but wouldn’t this being grown in an open field spread to other plants in the air, where plants made for human consumption and essentially free of human body organs? Doesn’t the liver of any 2 or 4 legged animal see the most blood flow through it and is the filter of all things bad from the body? I’m pretty sure the answer is yes to both! Then does this not lead one to believe this could make us sick?

Anaphylaxis? Blood type confusion and reaction? Mutations? Resistant strands of organism? New disease? Nausea and vomiting? That was mine, but do you see my distorted logic in it, regardless of the fact that I may have just eaten a portion of my grandfathers DNA in my chicken and rice casserole with his pig brain and egg breakfast covered with Tobasco? Yuck! Wretch! You get the point!

Why are we allowing the likes of Monsanto and other GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) to produce these beastly recipes? Where is the outrage?

I’ll stick to my baked potato and steak! You can have the rice and beans. Please no one please don’t send me a link for GMO steak from human DNA, that may be more than I can take!

Have a great day and enjoy the rest of your day……I dont feel so good!!!
