PepsiCo is ignoring criticism from pro-life advocates upset that the company contracts with a research firm that uses fetal cells from babies victimized by abortions to test and produce artificial flavor enhancers.

Although Pepsi is already on my listing of junk foods to avoid, I do not like the idea of drinking anything that has dead baby parts as an ingredient.

What is wrong with them? Do they not see that is a bad idea?

What the situation here is a company(Pepsi) is using a research companies that use embryonic cells to assist their clients in formulating different flavors. The embryonic cells dont make it into any product. They are using the taste receptors in the cells for statistical studies of different flavors. We dont want American or any companies just whistliing dixie and using these kind of research companies that are doing research on the backs of the murdered and dead and various inbetween life and death because embryos are involved. Harkens back to research done during the Nazi era.

It doesn’t. That is deliberate disinformation.

This kind of twisting the facts doesn’t do our side any good.

The reality is that Pepsi uses flavorings from a company that is alleged to use cells that originated from aborted baby (Fetal cells) in their research and development. When people try to say the cells are used as an ingredient they just make themselves and by association the entire Right To Life movement look like a bunch of nuts. We don’t need to do this!

It is enough for me that they knowingly are using the services of a company that uses fetal cells in research to make their products. It is not necessary to exaggerate the truth to convince me to tell Pepsi to shove their products where the sun don’t shine.

The truth is on our side. We don’t need to lie.
