Don't hold your breath. Lab grown meat is a pipedream that serves only venture capitalists. Just eat fucking beans.
people keep saying this but the meat industry is clearly very terrified of this and is lobbying politicians. i feel like that alone shows there is potential, beyond the advancements china uses to make egg whites and pig skins
My thing is: who is the target demographic? I don't see anyone switching back from being vegetarian or vegan, and right wingers already hate it. Wine moms who still shop at Whole Foods?
Honestly, I'd be very in favor of lab-grown animal products, if they were affordable enough. I'm a pretty big foodie and it would be very wonderful to have an ethical way of enjoying and sharing recipes for which I've been unable to find an adequate vegan substituion.
