Florida Is on Its Way to Banning – and Criminalizing – Alternative Meat

In theory, lab meat could have textures and tastes that are hard to cultivate with traditonal methods that consumers might want. Also it could have environment and health benefits that people find desirable. I saw a review of lab-grown salmon that was very positive. The question is if it will get to a price people are willing to pay and that is more questionable.

Meat substitutes aren't steaks, they're burgers. All that subtlety kinda disappears when you grind it up. In point of fact an Impossible Burger is rather closer to a fast food burger than a brisket is to a ribeye already.

Isn't this actually a way to keep the steaks on the table?

Us liberals, is what they mean. I dunno what we’d do with it, though. We’re all vegetarian.

This made me grin. Everything has a label that says it causes cancer in California.

Some people's willingness to eat any shit the food instrustry puts out, proudly even, and their inability to appreciate wholesome foods to save their lives. You know, the kind of things that make the average Italian think of the US as a dietary backwater.

I can understand laughing at the face of cancer by doing something enjoyable like smoking and drinking (even approve it).

But replacing real food with bland synthetic BS just to increase food industry profits? Since you forego of arugments and any personal opinion and went for pop psychology, let me have a jab at it too: I guess a lot of people are more afraid not to look modern enough, that they will be called out as Luddites if they eat a real steak instead of Soylent Green?
