Supporters include environmentalists who say it would reduce animal cruelty and potentially help slow climate change. Meat and dairy together account for about 14.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the United Nations.

Even if I knew nothing else about it just knowing that the Florida legislature is against it makes me for it.
which environmentalists support lab meat? Just eat plants ffs
I’m vegan for a few years now and will try this at my first opportunity.
The general public doesn’t give a flying fuck about animal suffering but maybe the same product without the suffering would be good enough to cause a switch.
Especially if it makes it cheaper and taste the same and gets the same nutrients and shit. I’ll do it. But until then, I’m a meat eating, steak lover and that won’t change
I was shamed by vegans a while back for advocating for lab-grown meat. I love the taste of meat, but I don’t like animal suffering. I can’t wait for this to be perfected.
From lab to slab, baby!
I do. Not for myself, but we all know that there are many people who would never give up meat. So for them.
No way. Its a generational issue. Make schools meat free and apply a 200% tax on things that are causing the climate catastrophe (at least including carbon & meat), and in 2 generations you’ll see most people gave up meat.
There’s nothing to miss, people just need to experience it for some years. When people realize the bean burger is just as good and 20x cheaper than the cow burger, they’ll order it every time
Yea, I’m going to have to go with a big fuck you on this one
Sounds solid. Now come up with a way to implement this without causing riots.
Well, unlike you some of us don’t have taste buds attuned to rabbits
Case and point. If this person was fed delicious plant-baeed foods for 12 years in school, they wouldn’t make such absurd statements
Its a generational issue that will be solved by increasing the costs of meat and removing meat from school cafeterias
Poor, you, mind your own business, and we can mind our own, and nobody can make laws about what other people can eat
Ever heard of laws outlawing dog or goose liver? Yeah, there are plenty of countries that have established laws about what people can eat.
Yeah, I don’t agree with that.
That’s why I said you leave us alone we leave you alone, and everyone does their own thing.
No one tells anyone else want to eat.
checks climate
Uh, yeah, it is asking too much to eat meat. Just put beans in your stew.
The climate can do whatever it fucking like. It could be perfect and i we pulled still be eating less meat than I want because of the price.
I don’t believe that the deer in the freezer is affecting the climate though, so I’m gonna go ahead and keep on not caring
Totally down for lab grown meat though, don’t get me wrong, if they can get the price down reasonable I am fucking in.
Hell, if they can match quality and price, I would probably never buy real meat again
Most of Iranian food consists of rice and vegetables in stew with meat lmao but I still definitely wouldn’t give up meat. I don’t consume an awful lot already it’s not too much to ask for some fucking meat
We also didn’t have school cafeterias.
They can’t even make meat taste good in a lot of school cafeterias. What makes you think the plant-based foods will be delicious instead of glop out of a can from the lowest bidder on the food contract?
3 steaks at our local discount grocery store cost over $50 this week. Lab grown is welcome
I find that seasoning my food makes it taste amazing.
Try it sometime.
Black bean burgers are fucking delicious
The sound of it? I would assume it’s silent. /s
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Opponents of lab-grown meat include beef and poultry associations worried that laboratory-made hamburgers or chicken nuggets could cut into their business.
Cattle and poultry associations are listed as chief supporters of restrictions, although some meat companies have also partnered with cultivated-meat firms to help meet global demand for protein.
Justin Kolbeck, chief executive of San Francisco-based Wildtype, which is working on lab-grown salmon, has traveled to Tallahassee, the Florida state capital, repeatedly to discuss the bill with lawmakers.
In Florida, opponents of the ban have seized on a recent report on Chinese state-owned media in which government officials cited the state’s proposed restrictions as something that would benefit China.
State Representative Lyndsay Cross, a Democrat, opposes the restriction, calling it “anti free market” and adding, “If consumers want this product, they’ll have to look at other countries including China.”
A recent amendment to the Florida measure would allow research on cultivated meat to be carried out within state boundaries, an attempt to allay concerns about hurting the space industry.

Conservatives: “Let the free market decide!”
Also conservatives: “Not like that.”
