Monsanto is going beyond GMOs and investing in the gene-editing startup Pairwise. The deal could herald the arrival of the first Crispr produce.

My friends Crispr is just another name for GMO. It is a gene editing tool. And as the old saying goes about how a leopard cannot change its spots, so goes that Monsanto can’t change its GMOs.

But this story was probably paid for in part by Monsanto because it lays the groundwork for Crispr “going beyond GMOs”. You know that Monsanto will threaten anybody now trying to label Crispr products as a GMO.

And some food companies will joyfully now be free of having to label their GMO(Crispr) material as GMO. We need the genetic testing companies.

Good luck to you all
