A group of scientists with Chinese sounding names have announced that they've found a way to synthesize human-based Gelatin. So instead of eating ground up cow bones when you order some Jello you can get people instead- well, actually, it'd be made by splicing the human gelatin gene into yeast, because from my experiences yeast seems to be the go-to microbe for splicing random shit into its genome. At some point all these spliced yeast genomes are going to end up in one yeast microbe and we'll have some kind of man-eating super yeast monster, just watch.
Gelatin also has medical uses and stuff, but this honestly just makes me think we'll be seeing jello-beer at some point in the next few years.
