Depends what the real meat premium gets to.
Would a real meat eater rather eat a $5 burger made from (well you really don't want to know what burger meat is made from) or a $5 fake-steak sandwich that looks and tastes like steak?
The initial market is going be fashionable fake meat for Wholefoods/Trader-Joes consumers. But assuming this is eventually cheaper than meat, keeps longer, has less problems with bugs/contamination/spoilage, is quicker easier to shape into burgers plus lower fat and healthier then fast food chains are going to offer it.

It's made from cow. Don't be squeamish, your ancestors ate far grosser bits of animals than you're gonna get in your hamburger.
- ceejayoz 14y agoMy ancestors did a lot of things I'm squeamish about. I don't see why that means I shouldn't be squeamish about them.
- excuse-me 14y agoThe reason there is no pork cat food? Because there is no part of a pig left over after you make sausages to put in the cat food!
- shawnc 14y agoMy ancestors didn't have indoor plumbing. By your logic, you should do just fine without. It's far more of an point being made, than just being squeamish. But somehow I don't think me re-listing what's been said will make a difference.
