I thought that was debunked but I guess I was wrong.
I was affiliated with the Flavor and Fragrance industry for decades, yes we do use some animal products, but I've never seen or heard of products of abortion used to enhance flavors. Is it possible that there's confusion with the Cosmetic industry? I do know they use a number of exotic products for topical use to peddle their products.
The company Pepsi was buying some of its flavorings from a company that had been using a line of engineered cells originally taken from fetal kidney tissue to enhance the flavors.
There is no cell tissue in the final product, but human tissue was being used to develop the flavor/enhancers.
Taste receptor cells.
Obviously taken from
Homo Taste Receptorius, which is a giant tongue life form. You've seen 'em around, the Rolling Stones used to have one.
The lab monitored how these cells reacted to various formulas, i.e. which of them "tasted good". In other words exactly the same thing as your friend offering you a Pepsi and saying, ''try this, it's pretty good".
Oh the horror. I'm going to think of this every time I ask somebody's opinion on what something tastes like, because it's the same process. "Waiter, how's the chicken pot pie-- wait ... excuse me
"
And these Giant Tongues were probably callously discarded after they served their corporate masters' purpose, rather than sent to Humpty Dumpty Factory to reassemble them into humans, or even Giant Tongue People.
Bastards.
To anyone with a conscience this is horrid, but to those who have long lived comfortably with the murder of millions of our unborn, this is a joke and proof of their lack of a moral compass.
-- says the assclown who counters Snopes with Alex Jones.
Emotional meltdowns aside, stem cells are developed in a lab; they're not "millions" and they're not "unborn" since they were never going to be "born". As soon as you get up from your barcalounger you're going to be walking on your own cells that fell out of your hair or skin, and they didn't come from a lab. Use your moral compass to navigate around them and you should be OK.
Somehow I'm not offended that some food process lab is basing the chemicals they contrive upon whether that flavour tastes good to humans. I'm offended that that chemical is going into that food just to make a profit. But that doesn't have a chance to kill the "unborn" -- when it attacks it will be on the born. But those who prefer to wallow in ignorance, hey they have their priorities.
Alex Jones told them so.
