Cultured meat is eye-catching technology. But it is also an over-engineered solution to a problem that we can solve by changing our diets. If we simply stopped eating meat, or ate it far less often, then there would be no need for either harmful intensive animal agriculture or meat grown in a lab. The cultured meat industry rests on a view of human beings as greedy and incapable of change. I dunno. I totally understand meat is an environmental disaster and has complicated health impacts. So dang tasty, though. Thai duck noodle soup. Carne asada taco. Mortadella. Fish 'n' chips. Weaning people off meat is going to take some dang tasty impossible beyond seitan tofurkey.
