If lab-grown meat becomes even half as good (and cheap) as slaughtered meat then I'd make the switch in a heartbeat. Not to mention, imagine being able to try out all sorts of exotic meats guilt-free, or being able to eat raw meat without risk of food-borne illness and parasites? Gimme some of that cruelty-free giant tortoise meat, lemme see what that gluttonous bitch Charles Darwin was on about.

it would be cool to taste human. breaking the most taboo thing on humankind, without even eating a part of an actual human

Plant based meats have been way more than half as good for a while (iirc some of them have even won blind tests), I don't get why people are so obsessed with lab grown versions.

But also, liking how someone tastes isn't a good justification for killing them, regardless of how good or bad the alternatives are. Fortunately there are tons of delicious vegan foods so it's a moot point
