I support this for several reasons:
1. I love animals, but I also love meat. I also have trouble absorbing plant-based iron so I NEED to eat iron-rich meats every so often. I try to only buy meat that has been pasture raised and humanely cared for, but if this were to become an affordable option, I would gladly make the switch.
2. This sort of technology will one day help enable us to grow organs, limbs, and whatnot for people. No more people dying waiting for a donor or hoping their donated organ isn't rejected--we can just grow em a new one!
And, perhaps this will one day give us an alternative to animal testing.
