It looks like the march to lab made meat is coming to an end. They tasted a burger today.

I might change my tune one day, but when I listened to it on NPR this morning I threw up in my mouth...

Ack! No thanks.

I'd absolutely eat it. I don't eat red meat now because of the inhumane treatment of our bovine and porcine friends on factory farms and industrial feedlots. Would I eat meat that was cloned, or meat grown in a lab? Sure. I like meat, but not enough to be a party to abuse.

Didn't I also see a news story today on something called soylent? The guy thinks he has a sense of humor by reminding people of Soylent Green (soylent green is people). With Obamacare, I'm not so sure. Send those old people to be reprocessed as food.

Here it is:

I'd rather eat the Frankenburger than some old person ground up. Maybe old people would be better for dog food.

No.

I won't even eat beef from Wal-Mart. Their hamburger is unbelievably God-awful.
