LAB-MUTATED PORK: The CRISPR pigs are gene-edited and heading to your dinner plate

The FDA does not run any long-term trials or research on anything in the food supply to see if it’s detrimental to human health. They don’t test GMOs to see if they cause cancer, dementia, heart disease, autism, nothing. What’s worse is that genetically altering animals and crops can have permanent horrific outcomes that can never be undone, but the FDA could not care less. They are in the business of working with Big Pharma to create toxic food and medicine for profit, and they’ve always been just that. Now, the new CRISPR pigs are genetically modified animals that could easily spread disease, disorder and a new plandemic of health disasters across the United States and the world, but the FDA approved it anyway. Why? The U.S. pork industry is a cash cow, and they don’t want to incur the $300 million loss of profits to pig viruses that kill the little piglets anymore. Who cares about the humans eating pork, though, right? Most pork in America is already ridden with parasites because pigs wallow in their own feces, are living in horrific CAFO quarters, are shot up with hormones and antibiotics, and are fed GMO feed they would never eat otherwise. So why not adulterate that vector of meat even more so? The FDA, Food and Drug Adulteration agency, is hard at work making American food even MORE toxic. Are you going to eat CRISPR pigs?

New CRISPR cancer pigs on the way to your plate America – pig virus PRRS could evolve to bypass genetic resistance, potentially creating deadlier strains

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the world’s first gene-edited pigs for human consumption, marking a pivotal moment in biotechnology and agriculture. Developed by British biotech company Genus, these CRISPR-modified pigs are immune to Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS), a costly disease plaguing industrial pig farming. While proponents argue this breakthrough could revolutionize food production, critics warn of potential health risks, ethical concerns, and a lack of consumer transparency. The approval raises urgent questions about the future of genetically altered meat — and whether the public is ready to accept it. PRRS has devastated pig farms since the 1980s, causing respiratory infections, high mortality rates in piglets, and annual losses exceeding $300 million in the U.S. alone. The virus thrives in crowded factory farms and mutates rapidly, rendering vaccines ineffective. Genus’s solution? Using CRISPR gene-editing technology to remove the cellular receptor that PRRS uses to infect pigs. The FDA’s greenlight means these genetically altered pigs can now reproduce, passing their edited traits to future generations — and their meat could reach U.S. supermarkets as early as next year. Unlike traditional genetic modification, which often introduces foreign DNA, CRISPR allows precise edits to an organism’s existing genes. However, the technology is not without risks. Past experiments have led to unintended mutations, such as enlarged tongues in pigs and extra vertebrae in cattle. Critics, including watchdog group GMWatch, warn that PRRS could evolve to bypass genetic resistance, potentially creating deadlier strains. “There is no silver bullet when it comes to PRRS,” cautioned a retired University of Minnesota veterinarian. Adding to the controversy is the lack of mandatory labeling. Genus’s chief operating officer, Matt Culbertson, told MIT Technology Review, “We aren’t aware of any labeling requirement,” meaning consumers may unknowingly eat gene-edited pork. Advocacy groups like the Center for Food Safety argue for stricter transparency, citing past failures like AquaBounty’s genetically engineered salmon, which faced market rejection due to consumer skepticism. These pigs join a short list of FDA-approved gene-edited animals, including GalSafe pigs (modified for allergy sufferers) and heat-tolerant cattle. The agency is investing heavily in agricultural gene editing, funding research into bird flu-resistant chickens and other livestock modifications. Yet, whether CRISPR-edited meat will gain public acceptance remains uncertain — especially without clear labeling. Consumers concerned about unlabeled gene-edited meat can seek certified organic products, support transparent local farmers, and advocate for labeling laws. As the global market weighs approval — with key players like China and the EU still undecided — the debate over CRISPR’s role in our food supply is far from over. One thing is clear: This approval sets a precedent, and its long-term consequences will shape the future of farming — and what ends up on our plates.
