Genetically Engineered Fish May Get FDA Approval
Do you like fish? If so, you may just like AquAdvantage, which I believe is the official trademark for the futuristic-sounding but very real genetically-engineered fish just developed for human consumption. Thus far, AquAdantage has not been approved by the FDA, but may very well be in the future, which is a frightening prospect for many reasons.
If you are a thinking person at all, you are probably wondering about the health and environmental consequences of possibly introducing a man-made species into our ponds, lakes, streams, and mouths. Many organizations have already written a letter to President Obama asking him to stop the ongoing FDA approval process- so far, there is no word from the president as to whether or not he will take defensive action on this issue.
