    Senomyx is a company that works with major food and beverage corporations around the world, such as pepsi, gatorade, nestle,the list goes on. Senomyx actually does use  G proteins from aborted baby feti to produce new flavors and smells. It is however hard to find a source that actually proves the existence of these proteins and receptor cells in these products. it would not be something that is highly publicized for obvious reasons. they do admit even on their website to using human receptor cells to test the binding affinity of a flavor or smell. where do you get human receptor cells other than from dead humans? but people have a choice whether or not to donate their body to science....fetuses dont

    i`m having a hard time buying it to,g-proteins or guanine nucleotide-binding proteins(Ggust or gustducin) do have an effect on the taste receptors but for pepsi to use aborted cells.......the implications are perverse to say the least. i hope not..

    You have got false information somewhere. It is not true.

    When my daughter was at school she was convinced that Macdonalds hamburgers were made from ground up worms. A boy in her class told her so it must be true. She has since learned that boys do not always tell the truth.
