On the issue of animal rights, I've been trying to cut back on meat. Mostly I try to eat eggs, yogurt, and shellfish, because that seems good enough to me. I don't think shrimp are self aware in the same way as birds and mammals. I buy the eggs that say the chickens are free to run around. Anyway that is my strategy. 
In the future the artificial meat should provide a human alternative. (OOPS I meant to say "humane alternative" - maybe this betrays my secret desire to practice cannibalism.
)
@robvalue, have you read about fecal transplants? I have minor digestive problems too - especially with wheat, oats, etc. I've found rice doesn't bother me. I suspect it is the GMO or maybe some of the microbes in my intestines died-off. I used to be able to eat anything.
