Animal flesh produced by culturing cells
all the money going towards AI should be going towards this instead
If you haven’t tried Impossible beef yet, I’d highly recommend it. It’s a 1 to 1 replacement for me (I actually prefer it and that’s coming from someone who loved beef)
It may as well be equivalent to lab grown, but is already widely available, affordable (especially on sale), and uses tremendously less resources than the real deal. Def recommend giving it a shot!
They’ve gotten so good since they started.
I always find it shocking when people say this. Impossible Meat (and the others in the market, like Beyond) are… Fine? But are very distinctly Not Meat to me, in both flavor and texture.
I mean no shade, I’m glad you found a meat replacement you like! And besides, your not the only one I’ve seen saying thag. I genuinely prefer things that are aiming to be their own thing. Black bean burgers remain my fav type of patty, for example.
Maybe I only tried Impossible after they perfected their formula, but in all the meals I’ve cooked with it, like burgers, chili, stuffed peppers, beef stroganoff, meatballs, etc, I wouldn’t be able to tell that it’s not real beef in either flavor or texture unless someone told me.
I cannot say the same for some other alternatives like soy curls, tvp, beyond meat, all of which have a certain ‘off’ flavor. Beyond meat as an example uses pea protein, which seems more difficult to mask.
The only other alternative that I’ve found that can convincingly be beef is Quorn, which if cooked with a bullion cube or marmite can very effectively replace ground beef in most recipes.
Oh, and those mushroom based Meati steaks are also really good and beefy. The texture is softer than real steak, but it works great for steak tacos.
dude, it takes like two months to learn to love beans more than meat. this is just an excuse people use to put off making changes their conscience pressures them to make.
lol i never needed an “excuse”
but if lab meat is a more sustainable and cleaner option, are you really against it because “eat beans instead”? lol ok
Generations have grown old and died saying they will stop abusing animals when lab meat comes out. And if you don’t care about animal abuse, then WTF do you care about lab meat for?? You want to pay more for a worse product because you’re just such a good consumer droid??? Wake up and stop being cruel and violent for no reason.

This argument still doesn’t make any kind of logical sense. The meat industry isn’t dangling labgrown meat in front of people as a way to avoid regulation.
If labgrown meat can get a significant amount of people to stop eating real meat because of things like cost, then it’s a beneficial technology.
And if you don’t care about animal abuse, then WTF do you care about lab meat for??
I mean there is the environmental factor… Also, liking labgrown meat more than beans doesn’t mean you don’t care about animal abuse.

Lol, people are allowed to have preferences. I’m sure you spend money on bullshit that other people don’t like.
i’m curious, are you able to support your labmeatbad arguments irl?
Por que no los dos
