      In a lot of ways, it is just as gross as alcohol. It’s made in large batches in a vat using tiny little organisms that assemble the final product. With alcohol the organisms typically being yeast, and meat being the actual cells.

      Meat lab:

      Brewery:

      Granted it is a hell of a lot more complicated with meat production, but aesthetically it is pretty much the same thing.

        That’s what breathing and walking animals/meat are.

        What are your thoughts on yoghurt, bread and sauerkraut? Since you don’t like alcohol because it gets made by fermentation, I wonder what you think about those.

          You misunderstand. I like alcohol, but I was merely making a comparison between something commonly accepted as being hygienic enough (alcohol) with something less accepted (lab meat).

          They’re both equally “gross”, which is to say not really gross at all. But to answer your question, not a big fan of yogurt, but I like bread and sauerkraut.
