Lab grown meat

See I like my steak rare, will Lab grown meat have blood?

I like to taste the blood..

Still a bit away from being able to make a steak.

 

you sir are a cannibal !

 

Well that’s just wrong.

 

Vampire patter, show's yer fangs

"Cultured meat, produced in bioreactors without the slaughter of an animal, has been approved for sale by a regulatory authority for the first time. The development has been hailed as a landmark moment across the meat industry.

The “chicken bites”, produced by the US company Eat Just, have passed a safety review by the Singapore Food Agency and the approval could open the door to a future when all meat is produced without the killing of livestock, the company said.

Dozens of firms are developing cultivated chicken, beef and pork, with a view to slashing the impact of industrial livestock production on the climate and nature crises, as well as providing cleaner, drug-free and cruelty-free meat. Currently, about 130 million chickens are slaughtered every day for meat, and 4 million pigs. By weight, 60% of the mammals on earth are livestock, 36% are humans and only 4% are wild."

 

If it means that animals aren’t suffering then I’m all for it, but what exactly do we do with all the planets live stock?

 

We shouldn’t be drinking milk anyway, we as humans are weaned off that in infancy as any other mammals are. The milk industry is horrible practice and more cruel than actual slaughter imo.

 

Livestock is probably mainly artificial insemination so by natural order of things cattle populations would shrink considerably. Also I'd imagine 3rd world countries etc would still Farm in some form it another as the cost of this lab meat may be high for some time but this is all way in the future I'd think.

All in all decent strides made but I'd still never eat that *. I wonder what will be become of all the farm land, will it be property development or back to nature?.

 

Can't argue with the second sentence at all.

 

I disagree tbh. My GFs uncle has a small milk farm. He gives a whistle in the morning and all the cows come in happy and excited for feeding while they get milked. Quit rightly you use an umbrella while below them he got me good with that...

friendliest cows iv seen who all potter over for a clap. I dont see how its inhumane, After they just potter off into the field and graze away with miles of space.

Got to help give birth to one aswel, last december... randomly late but some experience.
Now chicken battery farms I'm against. Horrible places.


Would I be against lab meat? Not if they manage the wagyu for cheap


Edit. Iv never researched what big farms do, but I honestly could not see anything wrong with the farm I was at.

 

interesting to see of its effect to the nature balance (not that todays nature is the very definition of balanced)
all that circle of life stuff our popular media brandishing about.
so if this is the norm in the future, that mean the end day of chickens and cows then? (as a livestock)

 

Thats fair enough but industrial scale milking is a shocking practice, they artificially inseminate the cows constantly for milking. We really shouldn’t be drinking another animals milk tbh.

 

Still better than what they do to chickens tbh. Atleast cows can graze in a field, a chickens life is spent in a box it can barely move from, no natural sunlight getting burns on its feet an legs from constantly just standing in it's own *. I refuse anything but organic chicken eggs tbh.

I'd probably feel the same as you about as milk if I looked it up in detail though.

 

I totally agree about chickens aswell I don’t eat eggs either, I do still eat meat so I am a hypocrite basically because all the meat industry is cruel imo. It was my daughter who woke me upto it as she is now vegetarian, that said I don’t think I could become one tbh.

 

Been eating artificially grown meat for donks. My local kebab shop sells it, I think it grows on their toilet walls or something.

 

I can't remember the exact stats, but I read that the numbers would decrease insanely fast if we stopped interfering through forced breeding (and kept consuming at the current rate). IIRC it was a few weeks.

Being bred for industrial farming is no life at all.

This lab-grown meat could be a game-changer. About time too - the human species treatment of other specials will always be our greatest shame.

 

I heard they scrape it from just under the rim of the cludgie pan.
