  5. your an idiot, they WON"T label it so you WILL EAT IT AND BUY IT...

    They already started to allow for horse meat to be sold, and fish are being genetically made in tubes as they say and you all eat that so at this point whats the difference...

    Wither its man made or nature made, the govt still puts harmful and altering things in the meats anyhow so whats the difference?
