Lab-Grown Meat: To Eat or Not to Eat
Introduction
Provoking recent trend: Bill Gates and Cargill
Grown from Petri dishes
Created by taking animal stem cells
Changing them into primitive fibers that combine to form muscle tissue
Advantages
Concern more on animal interests
Eliminate the need for slaughterhouse and the unethical treatment of animals
Help make meat production more sustainable
Lower the emissions of greenhouse gas
By adding vitamins and minerals to make lab-grown meat healthier and more nutritious
Disadvantages
Without the same structure like real meat:
lacks in taste and tecture
not attractive for consumers to purchase
Similar to genetically modified food, man-made meat might:
induces allergic reactions
leads to more serious health problems like cancer
Some research suggests that they also requires significant quantities of energy and gas emissions in order to maintain the infrastructure of lab-grow cell cultures
Conclusion
A long-term impact on a global scale
More all-inclusive research for both sustainable and healthy
Might come at a price
