What is the vegan position on lab grown meat?

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 9 points 6 months ago

If it's not hurting animals I would think positive?

[–] piccolo@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

My take (as a vegan):

  • Most lab grown meat still has animal product input so it's not vegan
  • In the event that they replace that part of the production, there's still a good chance it gets tested on animals to get GRAS (generally recognized as safe) certification from the FDA. I don't eat e.g. Impossible or Just, both of which tested their food on animals to get the certification.
  • If there existed a way of synthesizing meat that didn't have animal products as input and was never tested on animals, I'd be very excited about it from the perspective of getting omnis to stop killing animals for their flesh or secretions. I probably wouldn't eat it because of the ick factor, plus health reasons, but I think it would be vegan.

I also don't think that waiting for lab grown meat before going vegan is a morally defensible position in general.

Seriously, he could've started a genuine Satanic panic over magnetospinoencephalography but instead he jumps onto the most milk toast carnist psyop ever to fearmonger over Metal Cylinders.

Yes that is how an industrial process equipment looks like Redditman. It's not as bloody as an actual slaughterhouse or what Israelis do to Palestinians but it is a lab equipment.

Shiny happy lab meat holding hands

Surprisingly small, all considered.

They also have big room sized ones, this looks like an experimental one

Scale it down into a kitchen appliance so people can grow meat at home. Although I'm sure it'll be enshittified like the Juicero or something.

some meats are likely more possible to do at home, you really just need the right growth medium and the right yeast to keep fermentation going. plenty of people make their own insulin with similar devices at home. would definitely be more similar to a home brewery situation where youd have to tweak the yeast, and start on meats that are easier like egg whites

That machine looks cool.

I hate the trend of just showing a thing like your tone conveys the significance. I'd have to be so online to understand the context.

Being a politician is so easy these days.
