Another interesting option in this realm is mycelium, which could be better scaled on an industrial level.
- Terr_ 3y ago> Another interesting option in this realm is mycelium, which could be better scaled on an industrial level. I, for one, welcome our industrial biological process overlords. Especially in the cases where it supplants the more traditional kind that often involves lots of animal cruelty. I have no intrinsic objection to eating steak from a disembodied vat-muscle.
- voakbasda 3y agoWhen it comes to industrial processes, I have zero faith that a biological alternative will end up being better than synthetics, in the same way how certified organic products are still allowed to use “approved” chemicals, many of which are even more toxic or harmful than the conventional solutions they are meant to replace.
