GMOs are genetically modified organisms. These organisms contain genetic material that has been artificially manipulated in a laboratory.
Genetic modification of foods and organisms, produces combinations of plant, bacteria and virus genes that do not normally occur in nature.
But recently food manufacturers and scientists are taking GMO to a whole new level and its really scary.
Now they are not only splicing in viral, bacterial, and insect genetic matter into our vegetables but also animal genes.
And new CRISPR technology makes splicing in genes so easy, that barely trained scientists can do it.
One of the latest GMO foods is Piggy Sooy, a soybean genetically engineered to contain pig protein One or more undisclosed pig genes are spliced into soy to create a soybean with 26% animal protein.
Due to this genetic engineering, the interior color of the soybean is also a rosy flesh color.
Moolec, the U.K. based company that's developing this pig soybean is also working on developing a pea plant that produces beef protein.
Moolec claims these transgenic hybrids will provide similar taste, texture and nutritional value as meat, without the high cost of cultured or lab-grown meat alternatives.
So as usual, these companies and scientists parade their financial motivated GMO frankenfoods as healthier and better for the planet. Or they claim they're protecting the animals. All the while destroying the health of not only our generation, but generations to come.
The word's of Amit Dhingra, Moolet's chief scientist illustrate how they masquerade as environmental and animal activists:
“As is the case with lab-grown pork, it is hoped that commercial adoption of Piggy Sooy could ultimately eliminate the raising and slaughtering of pigs, along with the associated ethical and environmental concerns.
‘Moolec has developed a unique, successful, and patentable platform for the expression of highly valuable proteins in the seeds of economically important crops such as soybeans,’ says the company’s chief science officer, Amit Dhingra.
Tsunami Effect when plants are Genetically modified with CRISPR
Researches have discovered that CRSIPR editing wreaks havoc in the plant genome causing several hundred unintended genetic changes that affects large parts of the genome like a tsunami.
As reported by GMWatch in June 2023, researchers have discovered7 that CRISPR-Cas gene editing ends up wreaking havoc in the plant genome:8
“Recent scientific findings have revealed chromothripsis-like effects after the application of CRISPR/Cas gene editing in the genome of tomatoes … Chromothripsis refers to a phenomenon in which often several hundred genetic changes occur simultaneously in a catastrophic event. Many sections of the genetic material can be swapped, recombined, or even lost if this occurs …”
Importantly, the same catastrophic cascades of gene swaps, recombination and loss also occurs in mammalian and human cells in response to gene editing. Actually, that’s been known for some time.
This is the first time they’ve found that CRISPRthripsis occurs in gene edited plants as well, and the unintended genetic alterations not only occur far more frequently than previously suspected, but they also occur across large parts of the genome.

This is the first time they’ve found that CRISPR thripsis occurs in gene edited plants as well. Its been known for some time that unintended genetic changes occur to animal and human DNA following gene editing.
As explained by Test Biotech:9
“… when both strands of DNA are cut, as is typically the case with the CRISPR/Cas, the ends of the chromosomes can lose contact with each other. If the repair of the break in the chromosomes fails, the severed ends can be lost, restructured or incorporated elsewhere.
Chromothripsis otherwise seems to be relatively rare in plants. CRISPR/Cas applications can frequently result also in changes at genomic sites that are particularly well-protected by natural repair mechanisms. The risks cannot generally be estimated, so they must be investigated thoroughly in each and every case …
The recent findings shed new light on the alleged ‘precision’ of gene scissors: although the new technology can be used to target and cut precise locations in the genome, the consequences of ‘cutting’ the genome are to some extent unpredictable and uncontrollable.
Plants obtained from new genetic engineering (New GE) cannot, therefore, be regarded as safe per se, and need to be thoroughly investigated for risks. Without exact genomic analyses, chromothripsis can be easily overlooked. It is, for example, not unlikely that it also occurred in plants obtained from New GE that were already deregulated in the US.”
The FDA is doing absolutely nothing to safeguard our food supply
Tremendous Risks Involved in Gene Editing of Vegetables and legumes
There are serious risks involved in gene editing, due to all these genetic changes occurring in the plant from just one alteration.
Genetic engineering of plants can result in:
Alterations in the biochemical composition of the plant (or animal tissue)
Production of novel toxins
Production of novel allergens
Get ready for a world full of people severe allergies and higher risk of disease.
Unless of course, we return to eating non GMO foods, such as ancient grains, organic fruits and vegetables.
Support your local non-GMO organic farmers, and if possible grow your own food.
But it doesnt end there, we have to fight CRISPR gene editing, not just for ourselves, but for the health of future generations as well.
We are losing control of our food supply quickly and it will be irreversible.
It has become imperative to avoid all foods which contain GMO ingredients.
Top 10 GMO foods to avoid
- Corn
- Soy
- Canola
- Alfalfa
- Sugar Beets (a top source for refined sugar)
- Cotton (cottonseed oil)
- Papaya (almost all papaya is GMO)
- GMO Salmon
- Microbes and Enzymes (cooking and process agents that are hard to track because they’re often not even listed on food labels )
- Apples
