1st of January of 2025 it is announced that an advance making possible growing any kind of animal tissue in laboratory conditions
Let me tell ya.
Sure. Custom meat, without the unnecessary parts sounds great.
You asked this question in all seriousness but all I can hear is:
Crickets
The smell of the critters is enough to make my skin crawl.
Why not?
Sure, why not? I don't eat meat currently but I'd prolly throw in a lab burger or two occasionally if they were available
Depends on whether if it can be integrated into any of my recipes; or could be used in different recipes that taste good. Since it matches the price criteria for me; all that remains is the taste.
Of course not, I want my food to suffer.
Assuming it becomes a viable product, I wonder how it'll impact veganism? Since there's no animal cruelty.
We donβt eat red meat at all, so I would probably try it out fairly quickly. Actually we donβt eat chicken or the like either, only fish, which is something I miss a bit more now and then. We have a dried product called NoChicken that is actually pretty good, so thatβd probably be sufficient for me to wait a bit to see how it goes long term (I.e is it truly safe to consume).
But every now and then, I miss game. Moose and wood grouse mainly. Thatβd probably hook me enough to try it quickly.
Jesus, people bitch about processed foods but have no issues with whatever shit has to be put into this to make it grow?
500 protein bars...
As if the facists will allow it...
100% yes.
Only if the culture medium for the meat cells is not made of living animals.
Yes.
