Humans Won’t Stop Playing God Until We Destroy Ourselves
I always knew CRISPR was a horrible, repugnant idea.
But I never imagined they’d even come for our evening salads:
Meet Your New Gene-Edited Salad
Mustard greens that have been genetically altered to remove their pungent flavor are coming to U.S. grocery stores.
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- Pairwise, an agricultural biotechnology company, created Conscious Greens Purple Power Baby Greens Blend, the first CRISPR-edited food available to U.S. consumers.
- The company used CRISPR—clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats—to edit mustard greens’ DNA, removing a gene that gives them their pungent flavor.
- The greens are first being rolled out in restaurants in St. Louis, Springfield, Massachusetts, and the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, before heading to U.S. grocery stores—beginning in the Pacific Northwest.
- In 2022, researchers with Boston Children’s Hospital revealed that using CRISPR in human cell lines increased the risk of large rearrangements of DNA, which could increase cancer risk.
- Because regulators don’t consider gene-edited foods to be genetically modified organisms (GMOs), they don’t have to be labeled.
Mustard greens are a nutrient-dense source of vitamins and minerals, but their bitter flavor makes them unpalatable to many. To remedy the problem, Tom Adams, cofounder and CEO of Pairwise, told Wired, “We basically created a new category of salad.”
The agricultural biotechnology company, founded in 2017, had raised $90 million by 2021, and $115 million total, “to bring new varieties of fruits and vegetables to market.” Its first product, Conscious Greens Purple Power Baby Greens Blend, is also the first CRISPR-edited food available to U.S. consumers.
They have zero idea of what this will do in our bodies, but millions will still unknowingly eat it. The mystery mustards do not even have to be labeled as modified. Crazy.
We really cannot escape, can we? The merchants just keep pushing new DeathTech™. Pretty soon everything is going to be gene-edited unless you source direct from a local dissident farmer.
Hard to believe that I first started sounding the alarm about CRISPR over four years ago. It’s only gotten worse since then:
- The First CRISPR Babies Are Here
- The CIA Is Going To Use [CRISPR] Gene Editing To Resurrect A Woolly Mammoth
Now it’s even in our salads. Friggin hell, man.
Whichever dissident group ends up beating clown world needs to make sure they ban all of this trash.
And throw everyone into jail that has been pushing it and experimenting with it. Playing God and permanently destroying the food supply should be a life sentence.
But luckily these kinds of shenanigans cannot sustain for long. So I will be relaxing until the inevitable collapse under the weight of the insanity of it all.
From the sounds of it, the FBI figured out my plan:
Enjoy the collapse. And likewise, enjoy your Meme Monday.
Try to have a relaxing week with no gene-edited salad.
