French Paradox
It’s been a while
The cloned piggies are back in the news, and, like we suspected, they are good for you.
In what appears to be an effort to save Omega-3 rich fish from over-harvesting, geneticists have spliced a gene that makes “good” fat from a tiny, bacteriovorous soil nematode called Caenorhabditis elegans, into the nucleus of a fetal pig cell. The result is a healthier slab of bacon: Pork meat that is more Omega-3 and less Omega-6. Mmmmm.
The other other white meat
I love the concession that “…no one knows what their meat tastes like…” How long before we find out? “Hmmm, it’s a bit like pork, but with a piquant undertone of worm... Tastes like chicken.”

Haha I have no idea what these omegas are, but I guess they're moving them in a better direction. ;)
Nice piggies. I think they are very tasty :)
Seems like cloning works well!

im really quite surprised that cloned pigs are good for you...isnt pig of any form cloned or not cloned bad for you...the fat from a pig is the worst kind of meat out there..everyone knows that..how accurate is this information and who posted this blog..there is no factual evidence or the fda approving this
