Is the only argument against lab-grown meat that it disrupts an existing industry? Because I’ve yet to hear a legitimate reason why this is a bad idea.
The same people losing their minds over GMO crops are embracing labgrown meat. Why would you trust this? It's the ultimate processed food.
I’m for GMOs and lab meat.
No its not ffs
Wow, compelling argument.
At the same level as yours.
Instead of useless hostile replies, people should have just informed you that you're likely confusing plant-based meat alternatives like impossible Burger with lab grown meat. Lab grown meat is still meat and it's not processed from a bunch of ingredients it's grown, just not on an animal. I'm sorry lemmy is so toxic. People should be allowed to not know everything, I think.
I think you're allowed to "not know everything" in most places. Usually, the issue comes when you make a factually-incorrect or demonstrably-false statement with no explanation to back it up. I typically only see downvotes when a comment is made with undeserved confidence and/or exudes a sense of arrogance.
they say bipartisan but the only democrat I see mentioned is fetterman. which does make me wonder about him more.
As a member of @SenateAgDems
There you go. Agriculture lobby.
John Fetterman continues: " and as some dude who would never serve that slop to my kids,"
More likely the kids will serve it to you? LOL
I've never been more disappointed in someone I voted for than Fetterman.
Which is saying something because they're all pretty disappointing.
It seems like his stroke really changed him, like personality wise. It's just a shot in the dark, but I wonder if it really did. I really liked him before.
The dude was always for shitty things like fracking. But he does seem to be worse everyday.
I never should have trusted someone from York County
Your other option that cycle would have been so much worse.
It's not a real election in America unless you're choosing between less worse and more worse.
If it makes you feel better I would likely have voted for him before to if I lived in the state.
Reduces cruelty, so of course they hate it.
Reduces profits, so of course they hate it. Every doomed industry rushes to turn their products into the front line of a reactionary culture war.
“It doesn’t even make sense to me why someone would want to eat that,” Balsick said. “For us as humans to think that we can make a product better than God can is interesting.”
Vs
Are nuggets made with lab-grown chicken a more questionable choice than, say, milk from a cow that’s been fed ground-up chicken waste, a common practice which experts say may be contributing to the spread of bird flu?
“For us as humans to think that we can make a product better than God can is interesting.”
And yet I bet this doorknob still eats bread, a product much better than the raw grain God provided us.
All of us can do LOTS of things better than god. For starters, we’re visible. When someone asks us a question, we respond - and often in a clear, simple, unambiguous way, too. We can demonstrate our effect on the physical world. The list goes on.
I was gonna say, has this clown never heard of cooking
I guess we’ll also ignore how different the animals we raise now are from what they were originally.
There are many interesting questions surrounding cultured meat, but I’m mostly concerned with two of them.
-
Is it any good?
-
Is it reasonably priced?
There are lots of thought provoking discussions to be had, and I’ll be happy to read them, but the practical issues that impact me directly are the ones I care most about.
Its literally the same meat, but guaranteed no parasites and shit.
Not yet
What happened to free hand of market etc. God I hate hypocrites
According to Nature, the products begin with a small sample of animal cells, typically muscle cells, which are cultured in a controlled environment like a bioreactor. Provided with nutrients and a scaffold for support, these cells multiply and differentiate into muscle tissue over the course of several weeks.
Anyone know what the scaffold is made out of? The nature article is paywalled.
I don't know specifically, but here is an infographic of the different types
