I'm also curious about y'all's take on imitation meat as well.

My assumption is no harm to foul but I am not educated on the subject. Also I mostly mean conceptually, I am aware that lab grown meat is no where near efficient or viable for mass production

My galaxy brain take is that all the lab grown meat should go to people I'm always hearing about with weird dietary restrictions or pets who need it. Since it'll never be able to be produced on the scale that meat is produced now, it's unethical to eat it unless you have an actual need for it.

Besides, if you stop eating meat regularly it's harder for your stomach to digest it. There's excellent imitation meat already anyway.
