    This is great news and they cannot perfect the process too soon. Fish, rabbit, and beef so far, that can be printed at home on a 3D printer like a Star Trek replicator, and coming to supermarket near you within a few years. The article says it will be 20 years before they really make it affordable and commonplace, but within fifty years we will either have totally changed how we grow food, or we will starve to death by the billions. AI and a theory of everything, could mean the technology is perfected in some ways even in as short a time as ten years, but that's total speculation on my part and, possibly, wishful thinking.

    Today, something as stupid as vitamin A deficiency is still the leading cause of blindness.

    I would like try it. I don't eat much red meat since my doctor said to limit my intake. Then there's the impact on the environment.

    I can see it now... The droning masses chowing on their synthetic foods, oblivious to the few wealthy elites who can afford to eat real beef from their private Easter Island ranch.

    I think it would be cool to replace livestock sources. I think there’s probably some connection between crime or anti humanistic behavior and life beliefs and working at a slaughterhouse where you essentially watch yourself torture living things for profit and food. I think the health concern is still relevant after this is possible. Can meat be synthesized that is healthy and modified to not build up in your artery linings? How is this tested to be sure it's safe? The future is far out

    Medical doctors tend to assume that if it doesn't kill more than one person in 10,000 it can't be that bad, while one in a few thousand is very bad. Exactly how they will test this is anyone's guess, but I'm sure the researchers will take wild chances.

    Yes, scientific research has shown a correlation between animal cruelty and crime rates in human society ...

    There's a reason cock fighting is illegal in most states, and a reason it is illegal to cut the head off a chicken in NY state, while fucking it. However, the reason is English speaking cultures are ones of compulsive liars, and their populations have been imploding faster than any other on the planet for over half a century. All my research indicates they are drowning in their own lies, the faster technology improves, with IQs dropping noticeably with the introduction of televangelism and the cellphone. Better technology that encourages idiots to kill themselves faster and reproduce less often, could be the solution to all the world's problems.

    ^ You sound like a racist POS, but that's OK because it's against white people. The only race that still OK to bash, white devils, English western white devils. It's all their fault.

    Eastern cultures are so damn pure and righteous huh?!
