SPECIAL REPORT:
Applesteak Fruit, Lab Beef, Plantimals Next from Biotech Firms?
SYNOPSIS -- Steak genes in apples? Disembodied meat grown as tissue
culture in warehouse-sized labs? Half-plant/half-animal hybrids that
look like chickens or cows but have roots rather than feet? It's every
vegetarian's--probably even a few compassionate non-vegetarians'--worst
nightmare come true. And it could all happen soon thanks to
out-of-control biotech corporations if this report is to be believed.

P.S. I confess, I'm the one who wrote the report. Target practice with
tomatoes welcome as long as they are the ones with the new Flavr-Savr
genes. :^)
