We already have really good insight article on the CRISPR:

This NPR article is about Chinese research creating GMO pigs with less fat due to improved circulation of body heat:

GMO products will probably never be accepted in the US largely because of the Frankenfood political movement. In other places this may become a big deal, both in terms of lower- fat pork production and less cold stress on the pigs themselves during winter.
Which raises a question - when traveling abroad, people, particularly from the First World countries who have strong beliefs against some agricultural process like GMO, how do they fare food-wise? It must be a real challenge.
