I was shamed by vegans a while back for advocating for lab-grown meat. I love the taste of meat, but I don't like animal suffering. I can't wait for this to be perfected.

From lab to slab, baby!

There’s a subset of vegans (probably any group really) who has made it a part of their identity.

This is ok to an extent but I think some of them have internalized “we don’t eat meat” while forgetting WHY they made that decision in the first place.
