Cultivated Meat

Always interesting reading what the 0.001% demographic of the population think.

Where can you read the opinions of the 0.001% that might be interested in eating a lab grown GMO food product imitating beef? I'd be interested in reading it too.

Its illegal to kill Canada goose here. See where its going?

Nope. You completely lost me with that... You worship geese now?

Because they sure as **** ain't illegal to kill.

Damn like button has to be besides the quote button and my butter fingers fudged up.

In india its illegal to kill a cow for religious reasons. Its illegal to kill Canada goose here. See where its going?

In Alberta there’s a season on Canada geese and anyone who asks me can bag whatever they’d like off my place. Way to much wildlife out in our hills and muskeg for my or my wallet’s liking.

You realize cattle use commodities grown on the farm.

And use all the “feed” quality grain and turn it into a high quality “natural” unprocessed protein. Most of society fails to recognize that a large percentage of grain produced isn’t up to snuff for milling or edible specs. My cows don’t care if they get 42lb frozen barley or 54 lb 99% germ malt ......... all becomes moo poo just the same.

Have you ever realized that cows eat our comodoties FFS

So to me it doesn't matter if your cows eat it or if i sell it to be made into a patty. The difference is one of those paths uses far less resources, produces 90% less greenhouse gasses, and you don't have to kill anything.

For the average consumer, one of those paths is perceived much better then the other. Can you guess which one?

Don't worry grassy, just ignore that process of protein production, it won't affect the 66 billion animal per year slaughter process till you're long gone.

You missed the post, the .001% is the group posting here that only beef from a cow is acceptable. Unlike the McRib, this idea is sticking around or it would have been long gone already.

Over 50% of the biological molecules for vaccines and diseases are already produced in mammalian cell cultures already.

Ler me restate- parts of India have banned cattle slaughter mostly Hindu areas. And there are definitely restrictions on hunting goose or killing them. Some guy in the city purposely ran a couple down in the park and got a big fine.

The point is with a stroke of a pen, the forced switch can be done.

For something like climate change fortunately we have nat gas and other substitutes. For animal protein it will be pulse production.

But I really think the massive animal slaughter done mostly in factory feedlot type settings has a giant target on its back.

I'm not going to post numbers on here regarding Co2 released per pound of protein produced, Beef vs Grain, someone else can do that. But i do know there are a lot of by-products involved in processing a carcass that involve cosmetic, shoes, clothing, medications, sports equipment, pet food and industrial products amounting to billions of dollars per year.

The grain industry supplies humans, birds and livestock with food, plus breweries and distilleries with products for the normal common sensical people to cope with the wing nuts of the world. The by-products of grain are chaff, hulls and DDG . . . . . that are fed to cattle.

To take cattle out of the equation would leave a lot of gaps that would create more problems than it was supposed to solve.

Not quite rumrocks, those high percentage protein by products would then be used for products like beyond. Farmers have got to stop thinking as the products we grow to be high and low quality. That is for pricing to send you on your way with a cheque so you don't feel bad you got ripped off. On a molecular level, the desired proteins, and enzymes are there, and make no difference to processes like fractionation.

So instead of inefficiently putting it thru a cow, just use the protein.

I should mention they also figured out using gelatin to make "stringy" meat so it looks more natural like fibres.

If you have travelled anywhere on this earth beef “ain’t” going anywhere , but in people’s belly’s! Just look at the line ups for real food not fake meat shit . It’s not catching on and never will just a quick fad.

You just proved his point Tweety, gelatin is an animal byproduct incase you weren't aware.

Oh I have no doubt it will never catch on in the 3rd world, but in the first world, it will be a forced conversion, just like renewable energy. Punish and subsidize.

You and I will make the change so others don't have to just like everything these SJW govts do.

[Robertbarlage]

Canada will be a 3rd world fairly soon so we’re okay!

Kinda tough when the industries org actually works to undermine it in the name of "sustainable development". Where else do we hear that term employed? Why, in every farm representative organization under the sUN.

Tweety, what will fill the leather void, what would happen if you made a mistake and Mrs. Tweety had to discipline Mr. Bad Tweety and all the leather accessories are missing from your closet . . . . . . . and no you can't borrow mine.
