BioEntrepreneurial Idea: Genetic Modified Foods



My idea of a biological entrepreneurial company is a company that develops genetically modified foods. Some examples of these foods are chicken with 10 legs and plants that produce their own pesticides. The reason for the ten-legged chicken is so you can produce more drum sticks, which are many people's favorite part of a chicken to eat. The pesticide-producing plants can produce their own chemicals so people don't have to take their time spraying pesticides.
I think this will be a pretty successful company since you can produce food more efficiently and will not be a "pain in the butt." But this could also bring up controversies since its modifying animals and plants both physically and genetically. Also, it may be harmful to eat these foods, such as the pesticide-producing plants.
