The right wing panic* over how the left wants to destroy hamburgers and make everyone eat bugs is hilarious. You already eat bugs and you love it, you just call them shrimp and lobster!
If you want to say that doesn’t count, you STILL probably eat bugs in any processed food that’s red and doesn’t have artificial dye in it. They’re listed as cochineal/carmine/crimson lake/natural red 4/E120 <- these are all the same bug!
* not saying that’s what you’re doing OP, that’s just the most common context I see it

As an avid carnivore I’m excited about lab grown meat. I think anyone against it just doesn’t realize what it is. It’s literally meat. It’s just not attached to an animal. That’s all it is.
The best part is because it’s not attached to an animal that needs animal things, it’s basically free limitless meat. What meat lover wouldn’t want that? Come on now.
I’m not too fond of all the lab grown microplastics though.

The moment lab grown is one PENNY cheaper at the store will be a massive moment for animal welfare.

Hell, current plant-based alternatives would be doing great too if they weren’t inexplicably more expensive. Impossible Meat has a lower environmental impact and requires fewer resources to make than beef? Great! Why does it cost more then? I’m not even vegetarian but I’d happily switch to fake burgers if they weren’t double the price.

It’s already been banned by entire states. Quite ridiculous and shows who their donors are.

Ideally it’d completely replace mass produced meat and coexist with organic meat.
