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. Your reading comprehension is poor in this case. 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.

"Your reading comprehension is poor in this case."

I disagree. Not much difference between "dead baby parts as an ingredient" and "dead baby parts used to make or develop an ingredient." The are closely related concepts that are far removed from general decency. They are morally the same, just a different Ick-factor.

How do you know that a few molecules of the cells do not make it into any product? Exactly how do they use the taste receptors?

Just the idea that dead baby parts are used in any way for anything that is claimed to be fit for human consumption is abhorrent to me.
