Genetically Engineered Salmon

You've heard about genetics right. Everybody has them but you don't think of them as food. The FDA is thinking of approving genetically alterd Samon as food. They believe that the new fish will give us more to eat and help the fishing industry. The Samon is twice as big and grows twice as fast. Would you eat these fish? Are they safe? These are questions that come to my mind. I don't think that they soould be changing the size or normal growth on Samon becuase it's not natrual. By doing this they are changing the envorment. Humans don't need to alteer the natrual envorment like this. It's not normal, we have ruined the world enough. But sadly we will be repeating the process of destroying our planet anyway. You may be thinking " They are just fish who cares?" But by making them bigger you are also feeding bears and other animals these genes too. What if the genes cause bears to double in size and growth? I don't know not everyone has the same oppinion, whats yours?
