I am not object to it, also the best way to tell is for actual people eating it, for a while...so I will wait a while.
Personally I don't like to see animals suffer, I don't like the idea of captive animals bred just so I can eat them. And herein lies my own hypocrisy, but we are born into hypocrisy so not an easy thing to shake off.
I would hope nobody here approves of the extreme battery farming that takes place, yet is it realistic to think we can farm as we did many years ago, with the animals welfare in mind, giving them all the land they should have?
I'm quite stuck in my ways, but technology can sometimes have a lot to offer...even for the Luddite.
Edit, I should have written '...even for a Luddite like me', otherwise could sound as though I was calling others a Luddite...which I'm not.
But the ancient Egyptians didn't test their idea with a compliant medical report in an English Court...
Bah! So called 'advanced' civilisation...
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
Just because you don't like eating real meat - doesn't mean the rest of us have to agree.
Of course you don't have to agree, but I believe it's a fairly valid point.
There are insane amounts of farm animals putting a massive load on the environment and they don't have happy lives.
If the only farm animals were high welfare organic animals and the battery farmed ones were replaced with factory made protein I don't see that as a bad thing.
There will be iterations, it will develop and improve. You can't dismiss it because this particular early iteration isn't good enough.
Think about this if it were the other way round: You have available a delicious, nutritious, healthy (in moderation), affordable, low impact product which is grown in a factory. Now, do you want to begin subjecting thousands upon thousands of animals to a process of rearing for slaughter which causes harm to the environment, to create a product which is almost indistinguishable in taste and texture?
One question I have yet to get a clear answer to. Can Vegetarians and Vegans eat Lab grown meat?
This process looks (stinks of) a solution looking for a problem. A problem that does not exist. And a problem that hopefully will never exist. Scientists should look to find solutions to existing problems, instead of wasting their time on a ‘problem’ that doesn’t exist.

Should we adjust our ethics to suit our socio-economic model or rather reconsider adjusting our socio-economic model to suit our ethics?
A bit like maintaining war in order to maintain employment within the arms and aerospace industry.
The science is pretty incontrovertible, and there is plenty of evidence for it already;
We'll all live pretty much all of our lives in the past.
