If you ate the meat of that GM pig, “gentrified” to the point its organs could be transplanted into a human, would that be cannibalism? Eating “long pig” in other words? 😂

The problem with this is that an animal's organs can be completely different (or partially different) from a human's organs. The shape, the structure, the way organs in animals work vs the way organs in humans work, etc.
