Not only that, but as I understood it from various documentaries I've seen in the past, cannibalism also causes some sort of disease characterised by shaking... so it looks like it's not just a cultural taboo but also a biological one.
I think the circumstances are a million miles apart, reading about kuru it was tribes eating rotting corpses and having the maggots from the corpse as a side dish and focused a lot on eating brain parts.
This is eating meat from stem cells grown in a lab which has no brain and probably free of any disease anyway.
I do wonder how any meat would taste when it's made in a lab. I always wanted to taste bear meat, but I heard the reason why bear meat can be tasty is because they sometimes eat lots of blueberries. If the meat is grown in a lab the meat you're eating isn't from an animal that had a diet. I also wonder if it would save on all the land usage and greenhouse gases which farm animals generate.
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.
