The fact of the matter is, I repeat, this form of vitro meat would/will be identical to "natural" meat, except for the fact that you can actually manipulate it to be even better, by adding certain kinds of beneficial fats to it, for example.

For the record, I didn't have a problem reading Rhythm's post about the problems facing ranchers. Found it a little odd, because the longhorn ranches here all have between twenty and a hundred head, ops, a scale which would seem to be even more fraught with risk. Maybe they raise 'em for the boutique markets or simply as a hobby?
