would ya eat it...

[JRSherman]

Eat it? Yes.

Be pretty ticked off and angry when it was released. . .and it will be. . .into a natural habitat, decimating the original fishery?

Absolutely.

Genetically engineering an immobile plant is one thing. A living, breathing, mobile animal or fish is entirely wrong in my opinion. All it takes is one person thinking "These would be so much better in the wild" to drop a few breeding pairs in and screw up an ecosystem, as if humans already don't do that enough. I hunt and fish too, before I get called a whale hugging hippy.

we eat chicken all the time that start out as and egg and by the end of the day its on a truck headed to tyson.

it all looks the same on the way out

I don't believe that humans should be tinkering with any living things DNA but that's just me. I would eat it though.

Do you like Hamburgers.....? Do you think the meat came from that "Caveman Cow drawing" or do you think it came from an Angus, Hereford, Shorthorn, Limousin, Charolais, etc. breed of cattle.

How bout that tomato on your hamburger,..think it's a Heirloom tomato or a "Hot House Hybrid"

How bout that corn syrup in your soda,...think that came from Indian Style maize...?

The truth is you'd starve to death if you could only eat "pure" foods.

Humans have tinkered with the genes of the animals we raise and the crops we harvest since man was rubbing two sticks together for fire. Don't buy into all the propaganda that the media puts out.

me personaly i like southern highlander hamburgers.

Well, I guess I can do you no less than answer the questions asked. . .

After growing up on a farm for 15 years before being put out to society, other than rain grown hay and whatever grew on the place, our Herefords and Black Baldies didn't get genetically Engineered by the occasional range cubes.

Same farm, add the garden, tomatoes grown without commercial amounts of pesticide and herbicides. They came out lumpy and misshapen sometimes, brown others, but when they were picked and let sit to ripen, they turned a nice shade of red and got sliced up for dinner.

Should have answered the tomato question like this, but you missed my "Genetically engineered immobile plants are one thing" starter.

I've got about 6lbs of catfish out of two fishing trips that say otherwise. 2 pigs raised a year on shorts and scraps, chicks bought as eggs, hatched and raised to laying hens, a steer a year fed in valley grass and, god forbid, I actually get a dairy cow, I think I'll do just fine.

That is, unless they're genetically altering the deer in the woods and the fish in the lakes, then I guess you'd be right!

Although how Americans and Native Americans lived to be older than dirt before the FDA came around in the late '30's, I have no answer for that.

Seems to me all the preservatives in our food today, primarily in America, are assisting those fat cells in staying preserved. along with our natural lazy azz society, of which I am meaning no offense to any coincidental bystander, as I am in much need of a few lbs lost myself. . .

Not all humans tinker, some just like to let things be. I leave my previous comment as it stands, and have gave my defense.

As Deerwhacker pointed out we've been mucking about with animal genetics since we first domesticated them. Science has just found a way to do it faster.

I don't think we can know for sure the effect on wild salmon when some of them find their way to mix with the rest. It has the potential to actually help the wild salmon because faster growing fish have a better chance of surviving in the wild. At the same time unknown factors could destroy all the wild salmon. The wild salmon are not controlled by us in a controlled environment, the chance for a disaster is real and to me unacceptable.

"Immobile" plants.

The plant itself may be immobile, but its pollen sure isn't.

I will try anything once
