Would you eat In-vitro meat?!


Question: Would you eat In-vitro meat!?
I know its not economical now, and still uses animal sources currently, but if they finished devloping and reduced the cost, would vegitarians/vegans consider eating in-vitro meat!.

For those that don't want to read the article: In vitro meat is meat that has been grown from cultures in a lab!.

Answers:
I would certainly try it!. It would open up an avenue for dieters who don't eat meat for ethical reasons too because, after the suffering of some animals initially, success would mean the end of suffering for almost all meat animals!. Ethical dieters should be wishing them luck!.

Many of the ingredients in today's foods are already created in labs!.

Nearly all produce has already been genetically altered!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm going to go with no on this one as well!. Every vegan/vegetarian is different!. I could see why a person might want to hightail it back to carnivore-town, USA if their motivations were political/humanitarian!. But for health reasons, I still don't think that using meat as a source of protein is a good idea!.

An animal carcass is still an animal carcass - whether it was born and treated cruelly or if it was developed in a lab!.

Whereas nuts, beans, legumes, et!. al!. not only provide adequate protein sources, but also a wealth of other vitamins and minerals not found in meat!. So nutritionally speaking, you're getting more bang for your buck!

But don't get me wrong!.!.!.I do still occasionally look VERY longingly at hamburgers!. Rarely, but I'd be lying if I said that I didn't!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm neither a vegetarian or vegan!. I like barbie!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no, i would not!. my mid-wives used to eat placentas after a baby was born - they made stew!. YUCK! they did not get a hold of my babies - my older son knew these women ate them and it grossed him out too, so after his younger brother was born he took it out back and burried it!Www@FoodAQ@Com

No way!!!
If you think the tomato salmonella problem is bad just wait till labs start to grow animal products in bulk to supply the meat market!.

BTW: The best way to get artificial meat is to keep refining TVP made from soybeans!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

In a word: no!.

To elaborate: hell no!.

To add to the answer: In-vitro animal flesh is still animal flesh, and it's still terrible for you!.

If it were as healthy as tofu, I still wouldn't bother with it!.!.!. I've got tofu!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Why on earth would we do that !?

Vegetarians have clearly proven to themselves that meat is an entirely unnecessary part of a diet, so why on earth would they starting eating the stuff if its grown in labs !?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've discussed this with several people, and I personally would not, but only because of health reasons!.

If I was only vegetarian for ethical reasons, I could probably eat it, though!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is no way in hell I would eat that!. Even if I was still a meat eater I wouldn't have eaten it!. That is just repulsive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

of course not it is still meat and it would be genetically alteredWww@FoodAQ@Com

Oh! Hell yeah! I would try it!
