Question: What is PETA's connection to lab grow meat!?
A friend told me that they are offering a reward for the first lab to produce this stuff comercially!. YUCKY!. Yould you eat the stuff, and do you think PETA should be involved in this stuff!? :-(Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
yes apparently its amillion dollars or something, i think there are a lot of clauses to actually get the money!.

I personally think it is crazy, and will be contacting them with my view!
this is what Ingrid had to say!.!.!.!.
People are surprised to learn that PETA is interested in lab-grown meat, but we have overcome our own revulsion at flesh-eating to champion a breakthrough that will mean a far kinder world for animals!. One million dollars is a lot of money, but it's a small price to pay for something that has the potential to save about 1 million lives every hour!.

Why do we need lab grown meat!? People that want to eat chickens will still eat chickens!Www@FoodAQ@Com

It is impossible for me to comprehend much of what PETA justifies!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

About 10 billion animals are killed in the U!.S!. every year!. Almost 1 million chickens are killed every HOUR in the U!.S!. I fully support the development of lab meat and I think anyone who wants to reduce animal suffering should, too!.

It would also be good for the environment, considering how much waste is produced by farmed animals every year!. Imagine if meat industry wasn't dependent on slaughtering animals, how much suffering and pollution would be prevented!?

I would definitely eat lab-grown meat!.!.!.!.just as I enjoy faux meats!. I don't know if people would eat it, but it's worth trying!. Scientists say that lab-grown meat could even be designed to be healthier than meat from slaughtered animals!. See: http://www!.livescience!.com/technology/05!.!.!.

Test tube meat doesn't that make you almost loose your cookies!. I don't think PETA, or anyone else is going to get people to eat fake meat!. I didn't like the taste of meat back when my parents made me eat it as a child!. I don't think I'd the fake stuff!.

Thanks for bringing this up Kim!. I think way to many veggies worship the ground PETA stands on, without looking at some of the odd stuff they do!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
