"A HEALTHY form of bacon, ham and even pork scratchings could soon be available after the cloning of pigs genetically modified to produce beneficial fats.
The piglets have been enhanced with a gene from a nematode worm to give their meat up to five times the normal level of omega 3 fatty acids."
Erm, no thanks - worm genes don't really tickle my taste buds.
And anyway it was only last week that we learned that Omega 3 is not the dietary be-all and end-all (here).
