I'd be very happy if could get meat that was cheaper, safer, cleaner, and didn't have animal cruelty issues. This is the future.
Also does anyone else here remember the beef vats in Call to Power, the civilization knockoff game? It really feels like I'm living in the future when I read articles like this.
As a vegan, I'm thrilled about the prospect of this. This is the only realistic route to anything resembling the cessation of large scale animal farming.
Some vegans will eat it - others won't. I don't think you can say with confidence what portion of them will until there's some data.
Many are vegan on ethical grounds - which don't apply here.
Because there are always exceptions to the rule? Or because you think you can't generalize about any diverse group of people (yes you can, knowing that it obviously doesn't apply to every individual)?

Yes that's fair. But remember the backlash against beyond and impossible burgers because they're grilled on the same grill as meat - as if meat were an infection. Some vegans are a special bunch.
No, because the exceptions are the few times they are correct!
I'd say the problem is with the flawed generalization then, not being able to generalize about groups in general.
