I have doubts about whether it would be just as healthy as the meat we eat right now.

I think it would be too expensive and not worth the cost of production.

I think it would be strange, to say the least. Unnatural. I can't imagine eating something grown in a lab.

I do.

Quote:And wouldn't you agree that those problems would be mitigated by vitro meat?
I wouldn't, no.  For reasons already mentioned but..apparently, less than digestible.  

Quote:2) So you don't agree that the animals we grow for food suffer in the process?
No, I don't.  I think that you can find many examples of bad practices.  

Quote:What debate is there to be had about this?
None, right?  Bad practice is bad practice, and where we do agree...is that bad practice is deplorable.

Quote:What other goods am I expecting?

Environmental goods, economic goods, health goods, long term sustainability goods, a validation of your ideological position........and a law?  

I think they'll deliver meat, and just that. Frozen in vitro salisbury steaks. 20% Cellulose. Corn starch in vitro gravy in a microwaveable paper casserole dish - family size, $10. In vitro filet mig at $30/lb, pre-seasoned and ready to grill.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
