We'll need to wait until there's 20+ years of consumption before we know whether or not it's safe. On paper it sounds like a miracle, but can't know for sure until people have had a chance to use it for a long time.
I hope I live long enough to see automated food supply chains though. Run on completely renewable energy.
I think we will experience the opposite: "Although biotechnology may make it harder to define new food products, it could also facilitate more precise safety measures, DuPont’s Sewalt says. For instance, he says that as genome sequencing becomes faster, so could the process of figuring out whether gene insertions or deletions in new organisms pose health risks or other concerns. There’s also the possibility of explicitly designing in safety, such as by engineering egg white proteins so they don’t trigger allergic reactions. And, in the future, the potential to insert barcodes in genes and the development of in-line ID kits, that recognize specific strains of cell lines, could make it easier to verify new organisms and their protein products, and track products through supply chains."
That won't happen because RebelElite is a stalwart defender of the chicken egg. Doing that would be genetically raping the chicken egg, all for sick human pleasure. ---
My biggest flaw is how logical and reasonable I am. - hockeybub89
