I'm really damn worried about what the meat industry will do going forwards. The oil lobby got pretty crazy with a lot less pre-existing cultural fodder.

im staying optimistic, as long as it will be cheaper, the fastfood industry will massivly lobby in favor of it, and imo. mostly balance that out.

it will probably just have an awfull reputation, like mcnuggets "pink sludge"

It is kind of interesting that the cool hipster thing has gone from all-natural ingredients to literally actually synthetic lab meat in the space of a few years.

i kinda doubt you are talking about the same people here(mostly)

at least id say im a "tech bro" not a hipster.

i never gave a shit about "all natural" stuff, i dont care about msg, preservatives or Transglutaminase (a.k.a. Meat Glue)

heck, i even thought that "pink sludge" is kinda based, when i first learned of it.
