  But, are they fresh aborted fetuses?
context: "However, the Food and Drug Administration doesn't even allow the sale of foods containing human tissue in the U.S., a spokesperson said, adding that such a product designed for animal or human consumption doesn't even exist." From the article.

  Virtue signalling at its finest >
  
  That's literally all Republicans have to offer. Manufactured culture war bullshit. Nothing that would actually make any Americans' lives better.
  What's the Republican plan for healthcare? None. Their plan to address climate change? Pretend it doesn't exist. Their plan to tackle wealth and income inequality? Give rich people more money and cut social programs for the poor. Education? Destroy public schools and give the tax money to religious and private schools.
  There isn't a single issue that affects most Americans' daily lives and well being that the Republicans have a single affirmative policy prescription for. So all they can do is create culture war bogeymen to scare voters with and distract them from the fact that they have nothing else to offer. >
  
  Whatabout trickle down economics?  s/ >
  
  So it's fine to eat people as long as they're on the label. Texas is ... Different. >

  Next thing you know, kids won’t be able to drink from the hose in summer anymore! >
  
  In Texas, dust comes out the hose >
  
  This is true.  But we would have to make sure it is non GMO and gluten and nut free dust. >
  
  This is a red herring. The bill also targets all medical advances that involve research or anything at all using fetal tissue. They are pushing the food aspect so that people don't panic when it passes.
  This is likely the start of a process to demonize vaccines and push to ban many medical advances. >
  
  Yep, the  "There's dead babies in your food !" is just to get the moron's all worked up and supporting it and the meat of the bill is the part where they go after vaccines. >
  
  I imagine that the goal is also to demonize people who vote against it. “See! By voting against this, democrats admit that you’re eating aborted fetuses and they don’t want you to know it! Why else would they vote no??” >
  
  Yep. If you're against this bill it means you literally support killing babies and eating them! >
  
  Does this open the market for foods labeled as not made with aborted fetuses?
  Because if so, man, have I got a wonderful business proposition for a few lucky Reddit investors >
  
  I think you already can? I mean you arent lying...
  I would start a fast food chain with that motto. "No human fetusses in our burgers, does MacD guarantee you that??” >
  
  In related news, food made of ground unicorn scrotum also needs to be clearly labelled, idiots say >
  
  Technical question, since officially, they’re only unicorns if they come from the Unicornia region of Narnia and the rest are just sparkling horned horses, are the labelling requirements needed for the latter group as well? >
  
  Those need to be clearly labelled as DOP Narnicorns >
  
  American Unicorn product just need to be labelled as "Unicorn-Method" >
  
  Texas Senator tours Texas meat processing plant....
  Plant supervisor: ... and this is where we package the beef products.
  Texas Senator: Where do you keep the aborted fetuses?
  Plant supervisor: I'm sorry, what??
  Texas Senator: The aborted fetuses. Where do you keep them?? Are they delivered fresh from the clinics daily?? 
  Plant Supervisor: um? uh?
  Texas  Senator: Sir, you must think I'm a fool! I KNOW your products contain aborted fetuses in them because News Maxx said so! >
  
  They're stored in the basement of a certain DC Pizza Parlor, and whatever isn't used in their pedo blood rituals gets shipped to Texas and combined with tofu estrogen and gay frog meat which is then served at DNC fundraisers to keep their candidates immortal.
  Duh. >
  
  Someone needs to go around to grocery stores in Texas slapping "Contains Aborted Fetuses" stickers on all the egg cartons. >
  
  Not many of those caged laying hens have ever seen a cock in their lives >
  
  American conservatives are so f*cking useless.
  Instead of actually helping people, they do virtual signaling BS like this. Fixing problems that don't actually exist. >
  
  *virtue signaling.
  And wholly agreed, nothing but culture war BS made up for their idiot base. >
  
  The correct title is “GOP clears way to provide food made with aborted fetuses” >
  
  r/suddenlyprochoice >
  
  Beyond Fetus and Impossible Fetus should really lobby against this. 
  Personally, Impossible Fetus tastes more like the real thing. Beyond’s Fetus has a weird after taste. >
  
  This is the very definition of "tilting at windmills". >
  
  More like a stage magician's misdirection. >
  
  Do people believe that's an issue? I know republican voters are dumb as shit but are they really that dumb? >
  
  Yes. Yes they are. I actually know people who tried to engage me in conversation about planned parenthood selling the leftover baby parts. >
  
  jfc. Take a break and search for Bigfoot around Area 51. >
  
  They are actually lab grown stem cells, if you want do more research, as I just did. There are also plant based and vegan formulations. While I do not agree with the origination of it in 1986, I believe that finding a way to replicate and lab grow the stem cells is a good alternative. >
  
  Alternative headline: Republican Texas Lawmakers Begin Codifying Legal Inclusion of Fetal Tissue in Food >
  
  I read the headline to my son and said aborted feces >
  
  Tbh that would make way more sense. I feel like there’s a much higher chance of feces in most foods than human fetuses (much less specifically aborted fetuses). >
  
  I guess republicans do pass bills…even if they are completely useless. >
  
  Soylent Green is People! >
  
  Finally a pizza topping more hated than pineapple. >
  
  In a shocking turn of events, Texas legalizes food containing aborted fetuses, so long as it is appropriately labeled.
  What in the fuck is wrong with these people? >
  
  This is my favorite take on it. >
  
  What am I supposed to do with my aborted fetus burger meat now? >
  
  Conservatives are fucking stupid. >
  
  Seems... reasonable... >
  
  Dear US, you’re completely fucked up >
  
  Republicans, inventing outrage over things that don’t exist ever since they realized it wins votes with the uninformed >
  
  They CREATED the uninformed, and now indoctrination is simple. >
  
  I think it's very important that we know if fetuses are in our food.  But I know there are no foods that contain them.  So it's my medical opinion that this is stupid as hell. >
  
  The problem here is the wording that any pharmaceutical, for instance, derived from research that used fetal tissue, would need to be labeled. 
  The solution is for pharma to refuse to sell any products in Texas. Imagine Pfizer refusing to sell viagra in Texas because they would have to label some vaccine. No boners for Gohmert!
  Chant it with me y'all..
  No boners for Gohmert!
  No boners for Gohmert! >
  
  This chant works on multiple levels. >
  
  Texas is a shithole. >
  
  Fetuses made in Texas need clear labels, rest of country says. >
  
  Pseudo-virtue signaler gonna pseudo-virtue signal. >

  Someone needs to calculate how much tax money they waste on these pointless bills that exist only to own the libs. >

  How did the knock off gas station Slim Jim lobby  let this happen. How are they expected to fill their mystery meat sticks >
  
  Roadkill is abundant >
  
  Sounds nutritious??🤷‍♀️ >
  
  Sounds like a QAnon nutter >
  
  Law makers with nothing but air in their head should also require a clear label >
  
  The equivalent of saying we need to clearly label all food containing wooly mammoth meat >
  
  “Non-organic apples need clear labels.”
  It doesn’t exist. Make laws about it so idiots start thinking it exists, but they don’t. It’s illegal. >
  
  So it is true that Cancun Cruz eats babies. >
  
  Is this where we get to say “that’s what they take time to work on? What about xxxxx or yyyy!?!? Like the right does all the time? >
  
  An aborted Fetus is an extremely rare circumstance to begin with. >
  
  So anything made of eggs needs to be labeled "aborted chicken fetus"? >
  
  Invent ridiculous crisis that does not exist. Claim to “fight” for it. Claim victory over something that never existed in the first place. >
  
  If I was in the food business, I’d start proudly slapping “100% fetus free” on all my products.  The idiots demanding this law would likely fall for the implication of other brand not having a similar sticker and my revenue would go up. >
  
  Texas is pandering to the Q-Anon crowd I see. Because pretty sure no such food exists unless its in the fever dreams of the crazies. >
  
  Does it need to be from a human fetus? If not, we're going to have to talk about my omelet... >
  
  A soon as I read this headline I thought: Anti-vaxx. And yes! That’s the goal. Please religious people, pray your illness away. >
  
  While we're at it, we should ban all food grown on the moon too. 
  Really... What is wrong with these idiots? (Sorry if I offended any idiots) 
  "Now made with aborted fetus... New and improved!" >
  
  And here I thought we were eating aliens. Some people are too dumb to live on their own >
  
  Pretty sure TX is where they're planning on putting the camps. >
  
  My country has politicians who are incompetent , a bit dim, bumbling, selfish, corrupt just like any other country in the world.  
  But the US has absolutely bat shit crazy politicians who spread these crazy things that are believed by so many.
  What an insane place. >
  
  I think I need a mental break from USA based posts >
  
  Regarding targeting research: During my masters degree in 2015, I used human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells for my work. Technically the source is an aborted embryo. However this was a cell line. This means that the cells are propagated and split to make more cells which are frozen to be used later on. 
  The original cells were from an aborted embryo from the early 1970s in the Netherlands (over a decade before I was even born). You can see how ridiculous it is to target research using “aborted foetuses”. These are just cells, they don’t have a consciousness or “feel” in the sense that you and I feel. But they do provide valuable data needed for biomedical research and the advancement of medicine.
  This goes for stem cell research, embryonic stem cell lines are propagated and frozen and used to make different tissues of the body or even organoids. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines are derived from developed (or adult) tissue like hair follicles or skin. But I am going off course here. >
  
  Have they been stuffing aborted fetuses in my pop tarts again? >
  
  But will I still be able to buy a fetus for lunch on my food stamps card or will that count as fresh meat? Perhaps some canned fetus on rye sans American cheese (obviously) instead? >
  
  Come on folks, this is fair. I want to know if I'm eating aborted or sustainably harvested fetus. >
