With lab grown meat we could see the advent of ethical cannibalism.

It's like reverse lobsters. You gotta be able to taste the fear. 🤌

Don't worry, our source cells are from the most depressed individuals we could find. And our workers are the poorest immigrant pre-teens to ensure maximum suffering.

Don't forget to try our human tiddy sour cream, it's sourced from the same pre-teens!

So far, there's still suffering in lots of convoluted, drawn-out, disturbing ways : ( hoping they can quickly advance technology past the current methods

I use all parts of the animal :)

I hate that you're right about this

The dildo industry in general is gonna be filled with even more realism.

Holy fucking hell, that's a non-chalant way to express a horror movie setting. It sounds like something out of Hellraiser.

That's fucked up... (I wonder how much money I can get for my meat)

If this happens, I predict there will be at least one serial killer (or intended serial killer if they are caught before making it to the minimum) that will start there but then will become obsessed with the idea of eating the real thing and will make it happen, starting with some randoms and eventually going for the OF whose meat started it for them.

Vegetarianism: the custom of eating vegetables. So I guess we are witnessing the birth of humanitarianism.

"Gourmetally free", surely, without the oppression of the squeamish crowds?

Look for the ones that drink a lot of beer. It'll be like Kobe beef but human.

Hmmmmmmmm I thought prion diseases were (usually) a result of eating brain matter and occasionally the result of eating non brain matter that shared a body with a brain. By this understanding, the risk of prion diseases wouldn't be a factor as only the misfolded proteins of a brain are ones that can be risky.

But you could knock out the prion protein gene in the cell lines you use for meat production. It’s not needed for cell survival as far as I know.

In lab grown meat there is less risk of prions than in natural meat. Prions occur naturally and accumulate in the body, specifically the brain, because we have no way to get rid of them. In lab grown meat, the risk of acquiring prions through the animal’s diet is eliminated and the risk of the animal acquiring prions itself during its lifespan is reduced, assuming the meat is grown over a shorter period of time. This is true regardless of what kind of animal the meat duplicates.

future billion dollar idea right there

Literally eat the rich.

Thanks, that reminded me of the story of "Perfume" again.

They say you are what you eat, so you eat what you are. Therefore you are a cannibal

Regarding your username, if you log into lemmy with normal characters, does it let you or do you have to use the emoji letters every time?

This was the Mormon agenda all along.

A1 for steak, 57 for burgers, only used the Lawrys marinade but now I gotta try some of the sauce.

Agreed though, why go for long pork when pork pork is already so tasty?

Just s & p, that's for me

Novelty? Not wanting to talk to your grandkids?

There's also the film Soylent Green (1973), though that isn't lab-grown human tissue

🤢🤮

Auto-cannibalism is different than just normal cannibalism

You ever had lab grown meat?
