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.

(February 23, 2016 at 5:09 pm)Rhythm Wrote: Unfathomable amounts of gas and oil are used as the ingredients and energy in commercial fertilizer production....and then there are the phosphorous mines...........and pesticides.  We used oil as a replacement for manure, that's how we grow food now.  The fertility -comes- from the oil.  

The oil products affect the fertility of the land to an incredibly useful extent in the short term.  In the long term......human exploitation and warfare, toxicicty of soil, sky, water...destruction of habit and loss of life on a global scale.

But see, you keep taking about manure and yet earlier you said the bones of the animals and what have you could replace oil in that way as well. So just to make sure, it's not only about manure, it's about their bodies as well?

And I fully agree that we shouldn't use oil in that way. If it really is a binary choice between oil and animal fertiliser, then I have to agree with it, naturally. I guess we'll just have to find out better ways to fertilise soil in the future.
