Kind of a game changer. I almost planted some Calyxt beans this year. Expect lots of innovation from all companies, mainly not Monsanto.


These modified with crspr tech will not be subject to regulation like typical GMO since the process COULD be done with natural breeding.

"process COULD be done with natural breeding."

then why don't they do it that way.

And who benefits from dicking around with our food? certainly not the consumers.

Clearly didn't read any articles. The Calyxt beans were rediculously healthy. They don't do it basically since it takes forever and a huge budget to do so.


Bou in a dilemma. He needs to choose between big bad Monsanto and next gen food. Which one are you siding with?

Fck all these early Americans and others for breeding tasty plants.
Look what corn syrup has done to Hispanics....

Why don't we just re-engineer our intestines to digest cellulose.... hell, why don't we just grow giant ears with chloroplasts in the cells and just photosynthesize?
