A new study published in the journalScientific Reports has taken us one step closer to the dream of animal-free meat.

...

It may not sound like the most appetizing of foodstuffs, but pig skeletal muscle is in fact the main component of pork. The fact that it could be grown from a stem-cell line, rather than from a whole pig, is a major advance. This is also true of the paper’s second big development: the fact that this cultivation of pig skeletal muscle didn’t use animal serum, a component which has been used in other livestock muscle cultivation processes.

Anything is good slathered in BBQ sauce, right?

100% for it.


And since we are on the subject, also 100% for stem cell research. Its a miracle cure for a lot of issues. Its ridiculous we are letting people suffer, while others use their own personal theology to hold up the show. I thought there was suppose to be a separation of Church and State.

Bah, this is still for the 1%. I can't afford a $1,200 meatball.
