I’ve been vegan for 10 years so I have no desire to eat lab grown meat. I don’t like the fact that they still are using tissues from living animals to create it and I have low trust in the supply chain to make me believe I’d be buying a genuine product. I’m also not really into eating saturated fat, so I avoid beyond and impossible because of the coconut oils. I’m in my mid 40s and my bloodwork is great so I’m not looking to start eating things 100 years of research proves is causal of cardio vascular disease which is the number one killer.
For me, I grew up eating meat and just replaced it with beans, tofu, and yuba and in some occasions tvp. I personally eat a lot of moong dal blended into “egg” which we call in the vegan home cooks discord “Superior Mung EGG Alternative” or smeggma lol. I think we already have all the foods people need to be happy and healthy.

Beyond the health problems, I think there’s also so many more delicious things to eat that are vegan than “meat replacement”
The tissue is nothing. They just take that from a cow and it lives on.
More power to you. I’m not vegan, but I love the memes.
The tissue is something they ripped off a sentient being without consent
Eh vegetables don’t consent to being picked either. But let’s not go down that road.
Vegetables aren’t sentient.
