Drool-Worthy Test Tube Steak?
Submitted on: 2006 at 2:35 pm by Chris Stormer
We already eat meat that’s processed in vats - chicken nuggest. If we grow a better steak using cell cultures, we could eliminate pathogens like salmonella and save tnes of millions of animals a year. Sure cultured meat isn’t natural.. but neither is the processes for creating cheese or wine - not to mention stuffing 10,000 chickens in a metal shed and pumping them with drugs.
Only 2 percent of all graded beef is considered prime by the USDA. Envionment has a huge impact on the intricacies of taste, part of the fine dining experience is tasting one steak that is tender and buttery and another that is tough but has great flavor. This would effectivly be lost to test-tube steaks.
