    ugh bologna is nasty shit

    I mean, I get pork loin and steaks and a well roasted turkey being more appealing than a vegetarian diet but if the only meat available was bologna, I'd go veg in a heartbeat

    but what if we could take the animal out of the equation

    no more pig-shit lakes, no more cow concentration camps (CCCs I am so witty)

    the only real argument you have is that it doesn't taste the same or have the same consistency, and that's being worked on

    also (I am actually being serious now) every time you buy a meat product you are subsidizing the torture of animals

    so, you know, none of us really has the high ground here (except vegetarians)

    randall you have officially gone very very crazy.
    do you know how much space a free-range chicken raised for eggs gets to move around in? Make a guess, then click the spoiler.
    About a large index-card's worth.

    Now think about the chickens that aren't free-range.

    WHAT ABOUT NANNERPUSS!? ALL HE HAS IS A FUCKING PANCAKE AND THEY PLUNGE STRINGS INTO HIS PULPY FLESH!

    wait

    so according to ya'll

    you're down for genocide and mass extinction for farm animals

    gotcha

    but we're killing them all anyway

    so uh

    yeah

    but there's always more!

    but if we switch to synthesized meat, we won't need to keep breeding fuck-all huge numbers of pigs and cows and the like

    so there won't need to be more

    hey we got rid of slavery we don't need black people any more

    what the fuck kind of argument is this

    are black people cattle to you? what are you even trying to say?

    whoa there sambo do you really think i'm being serious here

    bologna is worse than currently existing lab meat in taste and texture

    it is decades ahead of its time in terms of being an unappealing pseudomeat

    How would one get different cuts of meat from said meat-cube? I can't wrap my head around this concept without having an animal's biology go with it.

    I'm not a bioengineer, so I don't know the specifics, but I know they can use a sort of "scaffolding" on which the cells being grown attach to, which dictate how they grow and connect to each other. Just set up a latticework cow's-ass and trick the cells into forming the proper musculature and whatnot.

    well they're starting with stem cells that they then influence via hormones and other environmental factors that they control to grow into muscle tissue

    different cuts (unless you're talking about organ meats) are all muscle tissue, just muscle from different regions that have different qualities based on what the muscles need to do

    so theoretically they should be able to find a way to stimulate the muscle tissue to grow in a way to mimic the type of muscle tissue they want, say chicken breast versus chicken thigh

    that's actually really interesting.

    and yeah, organ meats would be a tough one, like intestines for natural sausage casings and whatnot. of course, this synthetic meat deal could also lead to growing tissue for burn victims and stuff! :D neat!

    look, chances are if i'm trying to make a point on this forum i've tried to make it countless times before, with much more swearing and personal attacks.

    probably better grammar and punctuation, as well.

    but i can honestly say i was having fun trying to get somebody stirred up

    what's going on here is, i'm not gonna take shit so seriously
