Genetically-engineered fish and meat... coming soon?

TrueFoodNow has a report on the possibility of genetically engineered fish and meat showing up at your supermarket. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is currently accepting public comment on this subject.

My opposition to genetically-engineered crops and livestock has more to do with a concern for the enviroment than the safety of the food. Monocultures and other human meddling have the potential for reducing the long-term stability of the natural world in general and, more specifically, the food sources we rely on. But for both issues--the environmental impact and the human health implications--we simply don't have a lot of information. And the data we do have largely comes from the very companies that are patenting these organisms and will profit from selling them.
