@Baldurthegood "[S]ynthetic meat will be delicious."

I'll be honest, every once in a while I get a craving for a hamburger, specifically from Five Guys. As much as I love their fries and peanuts, I do get a craving for their horribly unhealthy burgers every now and then. If synthetic mean is even half as good, I can't wait.

synthetic meat will be delicious. If monsanto would back in vitro meat production it would be an ethical and financial gold mine.
