5) So, this begs the question: What about the USDA’s research/development on 3d printed food? After all, if the gov’t is advocating more proteins, etc, is this to say they are the ones creating it? https://www.nal.usda.gov/research-tools/food-safety-research-projects/advancing-science-3d-printing-technologies-novel-pulse

6) From 2020, Univ. of Connecticut’s 3D food grant (look at what gov’t arm provided the money): https://today.uconn.edu/2020/10/usda-grant-to-fund-research-in-3d-printing-novel-food-products-from-sustainable-sources/#:~:text=CCDC%2DSoldier%20Center%20will%20provide,his%20research%2C%20please%20click%20here.

7) So is 3D protein safe? This document appears to tie it to CRISPR & Texas Tech Univ.: https://portal.nifa.usda.gov/web/crisprojectpages/1030247-characterization-of-3d-printed-protein-inks-with-customization-using-machine-learning.html#:~:text=Goals%20/%20Objectives,how%20ML%20enables%203DFP%20personalization.

8) What about personalized 3D printed food?! (Just like the false narrative of ‘personalized learning’, this is NOT about individual health needs!) https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11339305/

AND
(2014) the introduction of reducing farm land for the ‘sustainable’ agenda?

10) A tie to the gov’t dependence on Israel? https://www.weforum.org/stories/2020/07/3d-printed-steak-cut-meat-consumption/

11) While the new gov’t food pyramid claims the shifts to ‘natural’ are all about fighting diseases, is it really?
https://www.engineeringforchange.org/news/3d-printing-food-end-world-hunger/
(A huge note to acknowledge is the consumption of all red meat is not as encouraged as other proteins, especially plant based. But what about insects and bugs as protein? While not specifically called out in this document, there is growing evidence that the US is on this track)

Then, USDA  ‘expanded’ their domain in school lunches (2024) (doesn’t even take into consideration the free breakfast program or the community inclusion that happens in conjunction with ‘free meals’ paid for by schools (taxpayers). https://www.ams.usda.gov/search/node?keys=school+lunch
