The United States Food and Drug Administration has authorized gene-edited pigs entrance into the food chain for human consumption—as German-style sausages.

Gene-editing can make changes in an organism’s DNA that could occur in nature or through selective breeding but would take much longer without a tool like CRISPR.

The FDA authorization is investigational, and limited to these particular pigs, but shows that gene-editing livestock to quickly produce desirable traits for improved food production is a viable strategy for helping feed the planet’s growing population.

Send those gene edited animals to the third world where they can reduce their surplus populations instead of destroying the modern world with new cancers and diseases.

No, the FDA a.k.a. the Fraud and Death Administration can eat these pigs. About a ten year trial and we'll see how many are left alive.

In the meantime I think Fraudci needs several boosters.
