Hey, how about this. You don't eat meat. I eat meat. You don't worry about what I eat. I won't worry about what you eat = we all get along.
No, that won't do, I'm afraid. Killing is unacceptable. I would put you on an IV of protein gloop until you recanted your evil ways.Skans » 18 Dec 2023, 4:22 pm » wrote: ↑ Hey, how about this.

Otherwise - You tell me what I can and cannot eat - I butcher you like a feral hog.
Interesting. It seems like it would still be real meat given that it is still animal cells. If it's makeup is the same as any meant, then who cares? I'd eat it.Punch » 16 Dec 2023, 7:22 pm » wrote: ↑
Stop murdering other sentient creatures to stuff your filthy, blood-soaked maws.
How can you gnaw on bones? It's sick and evil.
Is that a piece of flesh caught in your teeth? Gross!

The impact our diets have on the environment. Greenhouse gas emissions, water use, deforestation—all of those bad things. A lot of the time I run into the same conclusion: Compared to other sources of protein, meat—and especially beef—has an outsized impact on all of those things. So, like I said, eat less meat.But hold on a sec. What if you could eat meat without the environmental hang-ups? Well, that’s where things get interesting. The last half-decade has seen an explosion in startups trying to brew real animal cells in bioreactors—a field called cultivated (or, less kindly, ‘lab-grown’) meat.Cultivated meat companies are really racing ahead of late. So far they’ve raised close to three billion dollars in venture capital, and this year, for the first time ever in the US, two companies were cleared to sell cultivated meat to consumers. Several firms are working on giant factories to brew their cells.

I agree. If you kill a worm to feed your children, that is acceptable.
