honestly the fact that we have artificial meats that are almost as good as proper meat, we should be switching entirely. we are creating and torturing trillions of souls simply so mcdonals can have burgers
I’m down. I eat almost zero meat already, but I’ve never tasted an alternative that tastes like meat yet. Hopefully lab grown is available and affordable soon.
If you eat almost zero meat, why do you care whether or not something tastes like meat? Shouldn't you care whether or not it tastes good?
I don’t understand this question.
I like the taste of meat. It’s really quite delicious. I just don’t eat it often. I also like video games, but I don’t play them often. I enjoy lots of things on occasion.
I see no reason to avoid meat entirely. That’s my personal choice. And when there’s lab grown meat I won’t have to worry about it. I’ll just buy lab grown.
Wait. You see NO REASON? Like in this thread with this article in it you still see no reason to stop eating flesh?
No. 99% of the planet eats meat. It’s delicious. And I feel zero guilt about also eating meat, occasion.
Animals die every time I eat salad too.
Fucking weirdo. No one likes you people.
I don’t understand why you people don’t understand why yourselves reproducing is the real issue.
Cheem burgor
I've been a meat eater my whole life, and a well made impossible burger is pretty damn close. There's nothing "not meat-y" about it like I've experienced with beyond meat. I even use it to make my biscuits and gravy now because I can't tell the difference at all in that.
Alternative vegetable based "meats" have a huge amount of preservatives, emulsifiers, binders, and other nasty chemicals. Artificial meat is literally cancer enduced muscle cells grown in a vat of antibiotics.
If you don't want meat or feel morally bound to not consume meat, just be a vegetarian or vegan. The "alternatives" are disgusting.
