Lab-grown meat is different from fake meat.
The people behind it are concerned wit the water usage and chemical runoff of industrial cow farms, and maybe hope to convert a few vegans back to meat since there's no ethical concern.

Only because they're less likely to be obese and more likely to eat some unprocessed plants. The best diet is still a proper omnivore diet that also does those things because plants can't completely provide what you can get from animal products.

>lab grown meat
expect like 5% lab grown meat and 90% bamboo cellulose and 5% mystery chemicals. Don't be a retard, they're doing this to save on cost, not for the environment, not for your health.

Also, the fluids to culture mammalian cells like cow still require the killing of fetuses. But I guess most vegans are pro abortion anyway.
Don't know if this is true for bird meat too.

What the fuck is wrong with just meat in general? What are they doing?

[Anonymous No.14471428]

>>14471397
It's expensive.
More prone to food borne infections if handled improperly.

Basically they just want to sell you cheap slob for the same price. This movement has never been about the environment nor health. That's just the propaganda angle they're going with. Even if you're a vegan and think this is a good thing, you have to be able to see this much.

>It's expensive.
plant-based meats (in my area) are 5-6 bucks while regular meat ranges 6-10 bucks unless we're talking gigantic cuts of meat

are you telling me this is just poorfag cope?

[Anonymous No.14471497]

>>14471439
Imagine you're the head of BigMcFood Global Corp and you've just cut the cost of one of your more popular products by 30%, while still selling it for the same price. It's a cheap product, but you're selling hundreds of millions of these globally worldwide.
As for the supply, the slop is made from things like seed oils and cellulose, which can be locally farmed pretty much everywhere, and it's to find suppliers because it's easier on food safety standards to farm, transport and stockpile plants than it is meat.
And there is still potential to reduce cost even more as this is a relatively new technology and can still be improved in many ways.
Yeah, you're going home tonight with a big fat bonus.

Who cares about poorfags? No, this is purely profit driven.

Since chicken nuggets is already the leftover cuts of the remaining body parts, will lab grown chicken nuggets be more consistent?

[Anonymous No.14471532]

>>14471502
Growing animal cells isn't like growing yeast anon. These cells are highly sensitive. Replacements exists. But they're waaaaay more expensive and generally don't work as good.

If it won't produce a commercially viable burger in the end it might as well not exist.
Maybe it will become better and cheaper in the future, but I won't hold my breath. I see fake meats becoming a bigger thing though. Or the combination of both, where they'll use part lab grown meat and part fake meat so they can still get away with calling it "real meat" while cutting costs.

This.

I'm fine with some bean, corn, pepper fritter, fried and browned, covered in cheese, bits of cilantro in there. Or, falafels, so delicious, all those spices and fresh herbs with visible mashed beans.

But extruded, extracted, sprayed with fake grill marks, misted with oil, fake smoke, heavily processed bean milk with cheese powder, various starches to gel it together, steamed, then dried, then baked, then frozen, or knows what nonsense to mimic a texture that holds together like meat, pressed with bumps to simulate minced meat...Just stupidity.
