>Dairy jerseys and laying hens are both ~12%, with meat chickens ~15%. Does the efficiency for chickens include processing and sanitation? 15% sounds really high. Labs ought to have a much easier time dealing with no feces or feathers. And the price of chicken at present in the US is reputed to depend on undocumented immigrants working for below-market wages, which hopefully isn't an issue with technomeat. As for dairy/eggs, those alone aren't enough of a meat substitute or we'd all be vegetarian already.
