In today’s episode we are joined by Cyndi O'Meara to discuss synthetic biology, genetically modified organisms and our food supply. You will learn about this relatively new science using microbes, that is replacing natural processes which are considered too expensive, unfeasible, too slow, or not profitable by the food industry. We discuss ingredients including citric acid, ascorbic acid, xanthan gum, synthetic stevia and ListShield and we take a closer look at popular products including plant based or vegan meats and so much more.
