I have read a small Wikipedia piece about it since reading this thread and it looks like this meat could be nice and healthy but I'd just wait a few months, maybe a year before I try it. Let the pioneers try it first then I'll give it a go.
It's not just about the animals we kill, you know. It's about all the illnesses and the spoiled meat we get precisely because of the classical process, not to mention the environmental and economical issues to boot.
So when you talk about safety, cultured meat would be clearly superior to the former kind.
As for taste, look and affordability, those are important areas as well, which from what I understood won't pose too much of a problem. So the biggest problem would actually be combating general perception.
Ok, sounds good to me. I still remain slightly sceptical about manipulating nature like this and there being no consequences. If there truly is no consequences then I'd say it's very true that people's perception would need to change. I imagine ranchers would be angry since they would be the ones competing against artificial meat.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
