Cultured Meat - Petri Dish Burgers

[Male Idiot]

This is propably a necessary idea. Maybe in 200 years the third world will be well fed.

 

[Mars Attacks!]

I dunno if I'd eat it but I can see the benefits. The beef industry is terrible for the environment and like others have said, more food for hungry people.

 

[ICametoLurk]

Screw cultured beef, when can I get some nice cultured liver to go with my fava beans and a nice chianti.

:deviant:

 

[Cheap Sandals]

This fake meat has a long way to go, but I'd buy it. Raising animals is ridiculously inefficient.

This is propably a necessary idea. Maybe in 200 years the third world will be well fed.

People in the third world aren't going to be eating lab-produced comodity foods, that would take a huge amount of manufacturing, processing and distribution infrastructure that they just don't have.

 

[Varg Did Nothing Wrong]

I'd try some.

Cost pressures will make it happen. Real meat will likely become a ridiculously expensive luxury item.

Absolutely. This was obviously the case back in the 80's when Gibson wrote Neuromancer.

 

[Every Crook and Nanny]

Once they make it economically feasible and Black Angus-like, count me in.
