health impacts of cancer meat are still a mild concern ig.

It seems pretty unlikely to me that eating what is effectively a tasty tumor would have any significant health effects over regular meat.

True, but then health impacts of normal meat (over-) consumption are a concern too. No idea if perhaps the unnaturally uniform lab meat has less diverse macro and micro nutrients, but then again, nobody knows (I suspect, prove me wrong otherwise). But yea, over all this wasn't my biggest concern anyways so it hardly changes my outlook either way
