Guess what, that patent refers to cloned T1R2 and T1R3 polypeptide receptors. Not fetuses being in consumables.

So before scoffing at those "wannabe journalists of TYT" (mind you, with over 660 million views), ya might wanna do a bit of your own fact checking as well.

check out the corperation "Senomyx". all im saying...

(republican mode on) You guys dont get it, we dont know for sure if there are no fetuses in our food, just like we didnt know for sure if there were weapons of mass destruction in Afghanistan. We should def prohibit all food. (republican mode off)

Well...

"Federal food safety officials have never heard of such a thing. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has never gotten ANY reports of fetuses being used ANY part of food production."

Myth... BUSTED!

@LittleMisLateBloomer You know what this whole argument is invalid. We all know the food we buy in those little frozen boxes are horrible over processed chemically enhanced death. We really shouldn't be talking about this at all if people are unwilling to eat, idk, an apple or a peach.

BTW, LOL, those are not credible sources, as in can be trusted. That is little more than internet rumors.

[Bommelmensch]

@IraTopp So, from what are they cloned then? Fetuses, right? That means they use fetuses to enhance the taste os their products. I find this disturbing!

What did you think? That they put the dead little bodies into the blender?

[LittleMisLateBloomer]

@TomSucksChode There is hard evidence that proves that the companies PepsiCo, Kraft Foods, and Néstle have all used aborted fetal cells to improve their products through testing and flavor development. Do the research.

@KazokuMugiwara You know what.. i'm going to be the bigger person here and not revert to silly little things like cussing you our or insulting your spelling mistakes. It's just not productive. If you are actually interested on what basis i wrote my comment apron, here's your proof:

Google "Pepsi use of aborted fetal cells in flavor research."

It's about time we all stop being so ignorant out of choice. This happened.

Also, please do some more research before you respond to me.

Thanks
