Lab-grown meat is here – but would you eat it?

Nope. I would not eat it until there was lots of data on how it affects humans.

I'm wary, just because "they" have been so very wrong in the past. And it looks like they are manufacturing "meat" to conform with their prejudices:

I want MORE saturated fat and NO fiber. |
Hell Ya I'd eat it! I'll try anything at least once

If they're combining cultivated chicken cells with plant based ingredients to produce a chicken alternative, I wonder what the proportion of chicken based to plant based is in the "chicken alternative"? |

And it has nothing to do with "health" at all. I'm old enough, and well read enough, to remember when it was a GIVEN that our species developed the big brains from hunting and cooking. When the most important thing to remember about feeding growing children was getting them enough high quality protein. Which meant MEAT. Now we're told the foundational food of our entire species is deadly and will kill all. All from religious fanaticism and fanatical profit seeking. The very idea that what we need most is processed food that is the opposite of what we ate for millennia simply shows the efficiency of giant marketing initiatives. And how poorly the average citizen can think for themselves. |
Would I eat lab grown beef or ham?
I would not eat them here or there I would not eat them anywhere I would not eat them in a house I would not eat them with a mouse I would not eat them in a box I would not eat them with a fox I would not eat them on a train I would not eat them in the rain I would not eat them here or there I would not eat them anywhere With apologies to Dr. Seuss |

:lol::roll:Perfect! I don't trust them either, not one bit. And we can be almost 100% certain that if they're grown from animal protein cells, there's not going to be a bit of fat grown from animal cells in it. That may be part of the plant based stuff they're adding to it - some lovely PUFAs, just to make sure you don't consume any of that dastardly cholesterol laden saturated fat that naturally occurs in real meat. I'm starting to be glad that I'm old enough that I'm not likely to live long enough for lab grown meat to become the standard protein source for the masses, and that hopefully as long as I live, you'll at least still be able to get real chicken, beef, pork, and seafood, even if it comes with the attempt to administer a huge dose of guilt for eating real animal products. |
And I don't think lab grown meat is saving the planet.
Cows on pasturelands that aren't "finished" on a feed lot saves the planet. It's not fake news, it's propaganda. Bob |
One only needs to review the history of manufactured, mass produced "foods" to conclude that this thing called "meat" is potentially fraught with negatives and may be as deleterious to human health and the planet as other manufactured foods. Can manufactured meat add soil nutrients to benefit associated, farm-raised crops in a balanced farming approach? Biodynamic farming practices allow crops and animals to be raised in a complementary, synergistic fashion with natural soil nutrients from animals used to amend soil for continual healthy crop growing. I would say that aware vegetarians or plant-based advocates would benefit tremendously from this model; yet, the marketing of these manufactured "foods" are publicized to appeal to those who have an ethical stance against animal consumption or believe that consumption of animals (especially the dreaded red meat) is dangerous. What a crazy world.

You couldn’t pay me to eat it.
|
Never.
Wouldn't touch this science experiment for anything :lol: ;) |
Nope. Never.
Prefer eggs from my free range chickens......and their "chicken". |
I will never touch it, or anything similar.
