in these verkosigan books the have vat meat and actual meat is like viewed as unspeakably primitive and i'm like uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
you crazy, real meat from real animals is fucking delish
Presumably vat meat tastes just as good as actual meat, but doesn't involve killing things.
If one is raised on vat meat all their lives, they'd likely prefer vat meat to the real stuff. Like how Americans like Coke made with corn syrup vs. Coke made with sugar.
A huge number of people who like eating meat and yet are totally unfamiliar with where that meat actually comes from
These're usually the people who are like, "Well sure I eat meat but I don't know about foie gras / lamb / veal / etc"
We're practically there already

give me vat meat that is within 10% of the price, within 10% of the flavor, and with 90% of scientists saying it won't give me buttaids and i'll probably stop eating real meat

i could get behind this if i could hunt like one deer, one turkey, and one various.

Part of my depression slump earlier this year led me to some real deep introspective thinkin' re: my consumption of meat
then I was like "wait meat is delicious" and punched a cow to death so I could devour its bovine heart

First of all, marketing. A population is never going to eat vat meat when it's called 'vat meat'. That sounds artificial, processed, and completely unappetizing.
Science meat? Ethical meat?

I had gator meat today.
It tasted like pork, with a touch of something else I couldn't quite place.

Pfft, you can buy Coke with sugar in the US. It's delicious.

Marketing is considered one of the reasons why kangaroo has never hit the market in a major way, despite the meat being relatively plentiful and way more ecologically sustainable than other meat sources (esp. beef)
I remember reading that a firm tried to come up with a new name for kangaroo meat that would distance the image of the kangaroo from its delicious proteins but the end result - Australis - just sounds like a spaceship from some hard SF series about space-antipodeans

Other finalists for the name included kangarly, maroo, krou, maleen, kuja, roujoe, rooviande, jurru, ozru, marsu, kep, kangasaurus, marsupan, jumpmeat, and MOM (meat of marsupials).
Listen when someone tells me to eat their MOM I have a very different idea

not that I'm saying no, mind
Jump meat? Did this list come from professional advertisers or a room full of stoners?
