        in theory youre right.

        but meat industry lobbyists woud surely try to take advantage of the outrage.

        i vaguely remember a post on reddit on this topic.

        something like “artesinal celebrety meat”

        which of course turned out to be an “artistic project” or something trying to
        “highlight the moral issues” with lab meat,
        or some other horseshit.

        EDIT: here’s the post i was talking about

          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.
