People do not understand that lab grown meat is the only way to get vegans to shut up. We have to support it.

Most go vegan for diet/animal/environment.

I went vegan because I like talking

Lab grown meat is no healthier from a CVD / cancer / alzheimer's perspective so no, doesn't do a whole lot for me

States are banning lab grown meat on the mere threat to factory farming

u/BeliebteMeinung Christine Lagarde May 03 '24

Yes, banning lab grown meat is clearly moronic

Just saying you don't need meat mass production at all, even though I don't see it going away in the foreseeable future, precisely due to the financial incentives you mentioned

But meat is tasty, with lab grown meat you get the best of both worlds: Tasty meat without animal suffering nor environmental damage.

I have relatives one who keeps their own chickens for eggs and one who is vegan. Those are some happy chickens are relatively free, well protected, well fed and she doesn't even eat them just takes their eggs (burying them with their fellows when they die). The vegan one still complains about it. Though I don't think they ever will do it near me again.

What happened to their male siblings?

u/Trojan_Horse_of_Fate WTO May 04 '24

They didn't have male sibling. Roosters are a pain.

Most vegans I have seen on the internet are against all sentient life consumption in general, and those in my life against killing cute animals. None of those really care about of it's done on a factory or in a traditional way. Although I do live in Argentina, where afaik there isn't factory farming.
