Theme for June 17 – Genetically Modified Foods

Posted in: Meetings

Do you realize that every day you consume genetically modified foods? So, how does that make you feel? (And no, this week’s theme is not psychotherapy…) Many of you probably feel like waving your fists and yelling absurdities to the lot that came up with genetic engineering in the first place. But what about the importance of disease-resistant crops or fortified foods for third-world countries?

This week we will explore the good, the bad and the ugly with regard to genetic engineering and GMOs (genetically modified organisms). I’m sure many of you feel strongly about this issue.

By the way, did you know that insulin used by diabetics is synthesized by E. coli bacteria?
