    Lab grown meat, once perfected, is going to be such a game changer. Way cheaper, way healthier, no need for cattle feed and water and all the wasted land it takes.

    I understand, but hate the pushback against this from conservatives. The current mass industrialization of animal slaughter for mass consumption is a huge industry with lots of profit and shareholders, so they’re going to fight hard to prevent it.
