I want lab grown meat. It's been a dream of mine ever since I was a kid to taste mammoth.
Fuck that let's have celebrity cuts from DNA cloning
Give me a Biden burger with extra Jack cheese

What kinda Jack? We got Nicholson, we got Black, we got White, and even Chan.
Kevorkian please
They've been talking about lab-grown chicken nuggets hitting store shelves for a couple years now.
It’s such a bait and switch. The actual muscle and fats that people crave can’t really replicated just pink slime junk food you can make super convincing with soy anyway and far less energy.
Yeah but the thing is, there's a huge portion of the population out there that just flat-out refuses to eat any kind of "meat substitute". Some on a purely ideological ground, but plenty of otherwise well-meaning individuals that are just used to meat, and so anything else "just tastes weird".
To be fair, plenty of those same folks would still be against lab-meat for the same reasons, but I think it has the potential to bridge the gap a little and bring some more of those folks over, if you can say that this is "actually real meat", and particularly if the taste and texture are really on par.
I agree with your point though - soy proteins are about 90% as good as most meats (especially for something ground up like nuggets), and that's way more than enough to make it worth it imo. And it's even better when you're just not trying to replicate meat products in the first place - which I think is really the better approach - you can eat lots of great new things that aren't just burgers and nuggets and steaks! Being willing to eat meatless opens up such a huge new world of culinary space! It's wild that people that claim to be super invested in their food "tasting" just right are so unwilling to try the huge world of new flavors and experiences they are missing out on.
Like the meat industry is already abusing the word natural as much as it can so they are well primed if lab pink slime was ever economically viable.
Health systems are collapsing. Even if we won it would be such a dire situation. People need to get a real grip on their health and stop poisoning themselves.
