Genetically Altered Salmon Set to Move Closer to Your Table - NYTimes.com

Genetically Altered Salmon Set to Move Closer to Your Table - NYTimes.com

I don't eat salmon that much. It will be interesting to see if people will buy the salmon with the genetically engineered fast growth. According to the article, the meat is identical. The fish don't get bigger than normal salmon, they just achieve their size faster.

If the meat doesn't have a special label it will be accepted by consumers. If if has a special frankenfish label and their is regular fish along side it then no one will buy it.
