I'm also curious about y'all's take on imitation meat as well.

My assumption is no harm to foul but I am not educated on the subject. Also I mostly mean conceptually, I am aware that lab grown meat is no where near efficient or viable for mass production

My take is that the focus on this as "a solution" is essentially a grift that gives libs a sense of "something is being done" much the same way recycling or many other green tech related things are. I don't trust that it would be scalable or possible resource wise if the people telling me it is operate from the system we currently live in.

If we were not doing profit, I think stuff like this could be tried and studied absolutely, but then again humans could live without meat just fine too. So to me putting those resources to farming soy would make much more sense than manifacturing fake meat in factories.

It seems like it's a luxury product for a world of scarcity to make some feel that they better off than others. Essentially the whole thing feels very capitalist logic coded.
