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
The vast majority of it is dependent on fetal bovine serum which is taken from pregnant cows killed in slaughterhouses, and therefore is not vegan.
The small percentage that currently can be produced without FBS is vegan but imo seems significantly less energy and material efficient than just growing legumes or peas, if it can even be made to scale at all
100% correct. The purpose of lab grown meat is to be a vehicle for venture capital and stock market grifting. To the extent that it isn’t, it is a pipedream. R&D on this is a bad use of time and effort at best, at worst greenwashing for rich treat brained nitwits.
The best part of being vegan for a long time is no longer even thinking like this sounds like something I’d try even if it were ethical. I love beans!
I see, that makes a lot of sense. Unfortunate to hear though as I was under the impression they didn’t need to harm the animals :/
