| Aborted Fetal Tissue Used? Question from Anon on 01-24-2013: |
Hi Judie, my mom recently sent me an article that
claims that aborted fetal cells are used to test
products such as common Pepsi soft drinks, certain
Nestle products, certain Kraft products, some other
popular food products such as candy and juices, as well
as being used in vaccines. The article also says that
there is a growing market for fetuses aborted in later
trimesters. If this is true, this is absolutely
HORRENDOUS and it's disgusting and inexcusable that any
American could think that this country is on the right
path. We can't test products on animals, but it's
perfectly fine to test them on human babies?? I know
that you are very knowledgeable about pro-life matters.
Do you know if these claims are true? Here is the
article in case you want to refer back to it:

Dear Anon The information on Pepsi has turned out to be wrong. Please see this article: BOYCOTT
ENDS: PEPSICO WILL NOT USE ABORTED FETAL CELLS
