Boycott Pepsi, Others For Using Aborted Babies In Product Development

Children of God for Life discovered Pepsi's partnership with Senomyx in developing flavor enhancers for its products.  The latter uses cells from the line HEK - which stands for "human embryonic kidney".  This line was derived from an aborted baby.

As you read the COG site for information, you'll notice that Pepsi's responses have been dismissive and perhaps even flippant.  This is unacceptable.  I heard of this about a month ago.  Until then I had been drinking Pepsi almost exclusively.  No more.

Update On Senomyx Situation

Yesterday I related that several major food chains were partnering with a biotech company, Senomyx, that uses cells from aborted babies.  Today I learned from Lifesite News that Solae no longer has a relationship with Senomyx.

Major Food Chains Using Cells From Aborted Babies

Children of God for Life has learned that a biotech company called Senomyx is using cells from aborted babies to test artificial flavor enhancers in food.  Senomyx is partnering with several major food chains:
  • Pepsico
  • Nestle
  • Kraft Food/Cadbury Chocolate
  • Solae
Children of God for Life has called for a boycott not only of Senomyx, but also of their partners.  To illustrate the effectiveness of their boycott, they relate that Campbell Soup was another Senomyx partner, but very soon after the boycott was called, Campbell advised them that they were severing ties with Senomyx.

The COGFL site, linked above, has contact information for the companies involved.  Please contact them and advise them that you will not be de facto cannibals.  Thank you.
