Reminds me of cities banning cars to prevent horse drawn carriages from being obsolete. Stupid.

I guess the meat is not the same if nothing suffer in the process.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

I mean, you can really taste the suffering

More republican virtue signaling bullshit

Also this was pretty lulzy:

Arizona State Rep. David Marshall, R-Snowflake, and four co-sponsors have introduced House Bill 2121, prohibiting cell-cultured animal products.

I thought the article was dunking on him at first, but it turns out Snowflake isn't just a conservative state of mind, it's also a small town in Arizona.

Hahaha this is fucking hilarious

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

I think "vice signalling" makes more sense here

Why did Italy ban lab-grown meat from Arizona in the first place?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago

I'm excited to try lab grown meat when it's more widely available. It's one of the few upcoming technologies that I can actually fully get behind.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Lab grown meat huh....
Anyone can tell me the taste of lab grown meat compared to natural meat ?

[–] [email protected] 42 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Reports say they taste identical, because it's literally the muscle being grown.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

Your assumption is that all meat tastes the same. Try eating a free range Argentinian steak and a cheap Tesco value steak... They are not the same.

I cannot judge grown meat, but meat taste greatly varies

[–] [email protected] -3 points 10 months ago

It's often parroted by people who haven't had meat, ever. Because even different parts of the same animal have different texture. And meat quality depends massively on the diet and upbringing the animal had.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Doesn't matter if you know how to prepare it properly.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes and no.

Preparation can work wonders but it won't make you think you're eating venison when you're actually eating Tesco value horse meat

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Yes, but you can make the horse meat delicious...not comparable just delicious

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Absolute 100% grade A bullshit.

Yes you can make a decent cheap steak good but in no way are you going to get as good a cook as a as a highly rated prime cut.

You are talking straight out of your asshole on this one.

Oh wow, you've been hard at work. -3500 now! It was just yesterday I was praising you for making -2000!! ❤️

[–] [email protected] -2 points 10 months ago

It's hard when I get so many up votes when I happen to agree with the hammer sickle mob.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

It's been a year or so since I've looked into it, but from what I've seen the issue isn't taste, it's that the texture is awful. That'll obviously improve with time though.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Tast… no. However I can assume it has less plastic in it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

at this point I wouldn't even make that assumption

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I haven't tasted myself but the consensus from what I saw is that "is dry but very good" it doesn't cook well in a BBQ but in dishes works well.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

It doesn't mean anything. When this product is mature enough and ready to be mass marketed, the bourgeoisie will simply do the good old lobbying of the government to unban it
