If this gets approved, all I can say is every food item on our table will eventually be genetically altered through DNA.
Yikes! .

In the movie "Jurasic Park" the cloned dinosaurs were all females. When a census of dinosaurs was taken, the park management found there were more individuals than what had been released. Nature, in the end, always prevails.
I doubt, even with rigorous security, that GMO salmon could be totally confined to inland pens. |

This sounds like the first five minutes of every bad horror movie, in the real world I don't really care.

Farming fish is the future, this isn't a bad idea to grow them fast. We already do it with chicken and junk fish like Tilapia.
Grow them fast and sell them cheap. Its not problem if they get out, they already stock farm raised fish just about everywhere.

Cheap food for the masses. Problem is this fast growing stuff has no taste or tastes like cardboard.

very similar to what happened to lumber. when you remodel an old home / building and start digging into the old framing, the difference in the wood's characteristics from today's lumber is staggering. it has color, smell, substance, tight rings, finer grain etc... by comparison, its amazing the lumber of today can do half of what old growth timber could. But I certainly prefer it being farmed than harvested from natural settings. |

You'll feel differently next time you're flyfishing and a chinook the size of a Chrysler confuses you for the fly....

I think I saw that movie too... Chuck Norris ends up fighting the mega-fish in the final scene.
