*FDA approves over-the-counter CRISPR for lactose intolerance* Finally, science has gone full Costco. Just imagine you stroll into CVS, grab a bag of Doritos, a gallon of milk, and—oh look—CRISPR in aisle 3. ‘Excuse me, where do you keep the gene-editing kits?’ ‘Right next to the chewing gum, sir.’ Now lactose intolerant folks can casually reprogram their DNA like they’re updating an iPhone. Warning label: ‘Side effects may include glowing in the dark, mooing at strangers, and sudden urges to graze in fields.’ Honestly, I can’t wait for the sequel: over-the-counter CRISPR for people who can’t parallel park. | ||
