It's not exactly the same, but given that much of it is for coloring, I feel the comparison should be drawn that basically all farmed salmon in the US is specifically fed food containing astaxanthin to give it a more pleasing coloring, the same as the purpose of the beta-carotene added here.

- morleytj 1y agoThe argument in the comment above is that lab grown salmon cells should not be allowed to be marketed as salmon because they have had components such as beta-carotene added for coloring. In light of the fact that similar compounds are added to the majority of farmed salmon for similar reasons, the comparison shows that the objection is likely a fallacious appeal to nature, purporting that something is good because it is "natural" or "normal" rather than presenting any objective evidence to argue their point.
