I think that they should study the termite more closely and use the gut bacteria from them instead of genetically engineering others. Think of the possibilities and implications though.

Corporations already use wood as filler in some "foods".

It is called cellulose and it is a wood pulp that is added to some foods. KMBC's Larry Moore reports.

No worries the FDA says cellulose is safe to eat, yay!:)sal

It is a fact, or so we are told, that some woods are carcinogenic. Maple is carcinogenic when the dust is inhaled over time. So the studies say. Other woods, especially tropical varieties are toxic, so much so that when I sand the floors I must make sure to wear a respirator. I wonder how these toxins affect us when we eat the wood.
