Homicidal Monkey Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 @Sekaru:> Exactly, it would cause imbalance and pretty much ruin the ecosystem in most environments, etc. Yeah.. A in Biology *nodnod*actually it will unfuck a lot of the environment. A meat factory uses only a fraction of the area required for grazing. Actually if we do synthetic meat by 2025ish the total area required for farms would be equal to about 1.5x the landmass of South America.Also (of topic): we are working on lab grown vegetables/fruits in addition to the lab grown meat.@renzo:> As long as it doesn't taste like shit, I'll eat it.same enzymes, proteins, and fat consistency. The only difference would be that you could buy a brick of filet mignon for the same price as a brick of hamburger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Cheap quality meat. Can't go wrong with that.I might actually start eating the stuff. Only meat I currently get is chicken and the occasional pack of mince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keebler Elf Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 It has to take a shit load of recources to create even a ounce of this meat. If its safe to eat it is a good idea, however I feel like mass production of this brand of meat would be a bit difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Crusade Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I'd eat meat grown in a lab. Not only is it likely to be cheaper, but I imagine they'll be able to make it boneless, fatless, extra tender, and just better in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murdoc Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I'm not a moral vegetarian but I look at it this way. The amount of carbon emissions that is created from just one steak is about 25x that of a whole plate of vegetables and/or grains. So this idea of creating meat in a lab seems like a good idea in essence (if it tastes good of course). Only, the idea of eating meat is kind of off-putting to me since I've been a vegetarian for quite awhile, so I probably wouldnt eat meat even if artificially producing it got rid of animal abuse, and pollution. On a similiar note, people now realize that its becoming increasingly hard to sustain the production of meat with the constant rise in population, and so this could possibly be the means to end for at least a couple future global issues; not enough meat for meat eaters, and global warming.

You do know that a large quantity of the fruits/vegetables you eat daily were picked by slaves. You think you're helping the animals by not buying meat when really you're promoting the agricultural slave market. If you ask me, I'd rather eat a food from an abused animal than food produced from abused people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because personally I'm no fan of a huge edge of fat on my steak.Cut it off of course. :3.In my opinion vegetarians can be vegetarians. More power to them. But it isn't going to change the way I eat. Fuck their views and fuck the way they live. I love my steaks and I love my burger. I don't care if the cow didn't have a happy life.

Jeff Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 With this they can probably make some very nice, perfectly marbled meat that is better than filet mignon. If they can, I'll for sure eat it. It also seems like a good idea to cut down on CO2 emissions and used land resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
