MODERATORS
I'm stumped on why this is an issue. I mean, apart from the agricultural industries, I don't see why anyone can be against this.
If you are able to remember when GMO crops were shiny and new, you may also remember Jenny McCarthy types raising a stink about "frankenfood"
Basically mass hysteria about how unnaturally made food will give everyone cancer and four arms all in the wrong places and a third eye
Meat and dairy lobby .
Meat and dairy industries are huge and those people really don't want their businness to go extinct
Lots of beef in Florida
Fl lawmakers can fuck right off
Actually they are f**king off, so to speak, by wasting time on things like this that almost no one cares about, instead of the property insurance crisis, etc.
I really want to be able to buy lab grown meat. I want it to be cheaper to grow meat in a lab than raise a cow/chicken and then slaughter it. It is ethically the right thing, as it reduces suffering.
Not to mention the huge amount of farmland and deforestation that could be avoided
And CO2.
And suffering! I know we already said that one, but I've seen a large farm, and it really feels like a black mark on humanity that these persist
I want it more so because of the price and that they could literally make the best cuts since it's engineered. No more getting a cut with a chunk of gristle hidden in the middle of the steak, just perfect cuts ever time.
But they'll gladly eat a hot-dog of unknown composition.
Ok is this actually a thing or is everyone just meming on how hotdogs are the sandwhiches of meat where you can basically just use whatever you want.
There's some home recipes you can go for and it's some pretty dope stuff, from what I've seen ground beef and pork are the two biggest bases for "how the sausage gets made"
This is actually a thing. The cheapest hot dogs are basically (but hopefully not literally anymore) compromised of the meat that was left on the floor after processing cows, pigs, etc. It's been a trope for a long time that they just sweep up the floor and turn it into hot dogs.
The above said there are really good brands out there like Nathan's and some others that are all beef and not from "the floor". If you have a Costco membership you probably know about their Kirkland dogs, those are huge and really good.
I feel so free, thanks government!... Man I'm glad I'm leaving this stupid state.
Dude. Isn't there any actual governance for these losers to do?
Seriously. Seems as though all they do is bitch about total non-issues.
Well, I don't like the sounds of Florida lawmakers but I just have to live with it
Of course they don't. The cruelty for them is always the point, whether it's humans or animals.
Sounds like something those free market Republicans would love to do.
Making Competition ILLEGAL is the DEFINITION of Capitalism!
Chinese cars, foreign UTEs, and hemp have entered the chat
You grow me a ribeye in a lab and I am all over it
Yeah I don't understand why people are upset over it.. I mean if you're going to grow meat might as well be prime cuts
Why are republicans so against the free market? They have codified car dealership business model into law too, and are ok with monopolies like
It's pretty much like brewing beer. It may sound a bit odd since it's a new thing, but banning it would be just plain stupid
